PRODUCT OVERVIEW
This is a small, Pre-Filtered GNSS Low Noise Amplifier. It covers the following technologies:
- GPS L1-L5
- BeiDou COMPASS
- GLONASS
- NAVIC
The LNA has an average gain of 25 dB in the pass band and Noise Figure of 1 dB. This product has excellent out-of-band rejection specifications, provides power handling of up to a maximum -15 dBm and has an operating temperature range of -40C to +85C.
The part can be powered using one of three different methods
- Micro-USB cable
- +5VDC to +12VDC to the DC header.
- Bias Tee with a voltage range of +5VDC to +12VDC
Please note the following precaution: Since the Bias Tee is installed. When powering the device using either the DC header or the USB connector, +5 VDC will appear on the RF output. If your receiver does not have a DC blocking capacitor on its input or some other form of DC voltage protection, this voltage WILL damage your receiver.
This is the equivalent product without a bias tee
APPLICATIONS
• GNSS signal reception in a weak signal environment
• Rejection of strong signals in Cellular, LTE, UHF and 915 MHz, 2.4 GHz ISM bands
• GNSS signal processing
