DESCRIPTION

The SA3601 is an integrated dual-band RF front-end that operates at

both cellular (AMPS and TDMA) and PCS (TDMA) frequencies, and

low-band (LB) receiver is a combined low-noise amplifier (LNA) and

mixer. The LNA has a 1.7 dB noise figure (NF) at 881 MHz with 17 dB

of gain and an IIP3 of –7 dBm. The wide-dynamic range mixer has a

9.5 dB NF at 881 MHz with 9.5 dB of gain and an IIP3 of +6 dBm.

The high-band (HB) receiver is a combined low-noise amplifier (LNA)

and mixer, with the low-band and high-band mixers sharing the same

mixer output. The LNA has a 2.2 dB NF at 1960 MHz with 16 dB of

gain and an IIP3 of –5 dBm. The wide-dynamic range mixer has a

8.5 dB NF at 1960 MHz with 8.5 dB of gain and an IIP3 of +5.5 dBm.
