ARQSF1828-RX-A
1.8 – 2.8 GHz Dual-Channel Receiver Front-End Module
ARQSF1828-RX-A is a dual-channel, receiver front-end module (FEM) designed for 3GPP 5G NR FR1 bands n1, n2, n3, n7, n25, n30, n34, n38, n39, n40, n41, n65, n66, n70 and n90 Wireless Infrastructure. Each channel consists of a silicon SPDT switch and a two-stage GaAs LNA with bypass. The LNA provides high and low gain modes with 1.5 dB noise figure. The SPDT supports high power input signals up to 12 W average power with 10 dB PAR.
This FEM is part of iCana’s compact pin-to-pin compatible FEM product line designed for Wireless Infrastructure supporting major 3GPP bands.
Key Features
Transmit Operation:
- Power handling: 41 dBm average power (LTE signal, 10 dB PAR)
- Low insertion loss: 0.6 dB
- Tx-Rx Isolation: > 80 dB (ANT to RXout, LNA power down)
- Channel isolation: > 65 dB (TERM to TERM)
Receive Operation:
- Amplification with by-pass: High gain = 38 dB, Low gain = 18 dB
- Low current consumption: High gain = 105 mA, Low gain = 40 mA
- Low noise figure: 1.3 dB
- Excellent linearity: OIP3 = 33 dBm
