In Search of a 2.4GHz Preamp - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

I'm looking for a 2.4GHz IC preamp with an Nf in the neighborhood of 0.5 and gain somewhere between 20 to 30 db.

Thanks. That should do the job. If anyone knows of any other LNAs with gain closer to the 30db mark, please let me know.

Sirenza Microdevices has another 2 models of LNA with similar parameters. Take a look in their website and see if you can find additional devices.

Good luck!
