• Description: RF Amplifier LNA with Adjustable- IP3 and Shutdown for
• Manufacturer: Maxim Integrated Products

Specifications of MAX2655EXT+T

• Operating Frequency: 1575 MHz to 1900 MHz
• P1db: - 12.2 dBm
• Noise Figure: 1.45 dB at 1575 MHz
• Lead Free Status / RoHS Status: Lead free / RoHS Compliant

For optimum performance, input matching is required.
The MAX2654/MAX2655/MAX2656 require a simple LC
matching network. The Typical Operating Circuit shows
the recommended input matching networks. These val-
ues are optimized for best simultaneous gain, noise fig-
ure, and return loss performance. S-Parameter data can
be found on the Maxim website at www.maxim-ic.com.
A properly designed PC board is essential to any RF-
microwave circuit. Use controlled impedance lines on all
high-frequency inputs and outputs. Bypass V
decoupling capacitors located close to the device. For

capacitors. Locate these additional capacitors further
away from the device package. Proper grounding of the
GND pins is essential. If the PC board uses a topside RF
ground, connect it directly to all GND pins. For a board
where the ground plane is not on the component layer,
connect the GND pins to the board with a multiple vias
close to the package.
For MAX2654, connect Pin1 to the PC board ground
plane through a 0.017in x 0.035in line.
