Overview

The F6931 is an ultra-low power consumption, dual-channel, silicon on insulator (SOI) low noise amplifier (LNA) RFIC designed for application in Ku‑Band SATCOM planar phased array antennas. The exceptional combination of low power consumption, low noise, high gain, and compact size, maximizes the antenna array G/T while minimizing overall system power dissipation.

The F6931 includes two LNA channels in a compact 23-pin, 0.5mm pitch BGA package. All inputs and outputs are single-ended and 50Ω matched for ease of integration onto phased array antenna panels.
