Nisshinbo Microelectronics Co., Ltd. began mass production of two RF Low Noise Amplifiers (LNAs), NT1191 and NT1192, for high-precision GNSS (GPS, GL ONASS, Galileo, Beidou, etc.). The NT1191 is a wideband LNA supporting multi-band GNSS (1164MHz to 1610MHz), while the NT1192 is a 1.2 GHz LNA supporting L5/L2/L6 bands (1164MHz to 1300MHz).
In recent years, more and more devices such as automobiles, drones, and wearable devices require high-precision positioning. In order to achieve high-precision positioning, the device needs to have the ability to support multi-band signals. In addition to the conventional 1.5GHz band, it also needs to receive signals in the 1.2GHz band.
NT1191 Product Features
1. Good gain flatness and low noise figure (NF) across the entire GNSS band
Good gain flatness and low noise figure (NF) are achieved across the entire GNSS frequency band (1164 to 1610MHz).
Helps to reduce the difference in reception sensitivity between frequency bands when receiving multi-band signals.
2. Wide supply voltage range
It supports a wide range of supply voltages from 1.5 to 5.5V, so it can work under various supply voltages.
3. Wettable Flank package is adopted
Since the package used is a package with a Wettable Flank, it is very suitable for automatic appearance inspection that is often required such as in-vehicle equipment.
NT1192 Product Features
1. Achieves high gain and low noise figure (NF) in the 1.2GHz band
In the 1.2GHz band (1164MHz to 1300MHz), a high gain of 20dB and a low noise figure (NF) of 0.7dB are achieved.
2. Adopts a thin and small package
The package used is a low profile 0.7 × 1.1 mm leadless package, ideal for mobile devices. Only 2 external components are required, which helps to reduce the mounting area.
