UM10491 NXP Semiconductors BGU7004 GPS LNA EVB 1. Introduction NXP Semiconductors’ BGU7004 is an AEC-Q100 qualified low-noise amplifier for GPS receiver applications in a plastic, leadless 6 pin, extremely thin small outline SOT886 package. It has a gain of 16.5 dB gain and a noise figure of 0.8 dB, It has superior linearity performance to suppress interference and noise from co-habitation cellular transmitters while retaining sensitivity.
UM10491 NXP Semiconductors BGU7004 GPS LNA EVB 2. General description NXP Semiconductors’ BGU7004 GPS low noise amplifier is dedicated for the GPS frequency band. The integrated biasing circuit is temperature stabilized, which maintains a constant current over temperature. It also enables the superior linearity performance of the BGU7004.
UM10491 NXP Semiconductors BGU7004 GPS LNA EVB 3.1 Application Circuit The circuit diagram of the evaluation board is shown in Fig 2. With jumper JU1 the enable pin can be controlled to either to V or GND. Fig 2. Circuit diagram of the BGU7004 evaluation board 3.2 Board Layout Fig 3.
UM10491 NXP Semiconductors BGU7004 GPS LNA EVB 3.3 PCB layout A good PCB layout is an essential part of an RF circuit design. The evaluation board of the BGU7004 can serve as a guideline for laying out a board using the BGU7004. Use controlled impedance lines for all high frequency inputs and outputs.
UM10491 NXP Semiconductors BGU7004 GPS LNA EVB 4. Required Equipment In order to measure the evaluation board the following is necessary: DC Power Supply up to 30 mA at 1.5 V to 2.85 V; Two RF signal generators capable of generating an RF signal at the operating ...
UM10491 NXP Semiconductors BGU7004 GPS LNA EVB 9. For noise under jamming conditions, the following is needed. A 15dB ENR noise source, a directional coupler, GPS band pass filter, a noise-figure analyzer or a spectrum analyzer with noise option can be used. See Fig 12 Fig 5.

UM10491 NXP Semiconductors BGU7004 GPS LNA EVB Fig 9. Setup for 1 dB compression with jammers The gain was measured in the GPS frequency band between port 1 and 2, while simultaneously a jammer power signal was swept on port 3. Please note that the drive power of the jammer is 20 dB lower at the input of the DUT caused by the directional coupler.
