The ADL8141 is a low power consumption, low-noise amplifier that operates from 14 to 24 GHz. Typical gain, noise figure, and output third-order intercept (OIP3) are 29 dB, 1,4 dB, and 18 dBm, respectively. Typical supply current is 25 mA from a 2 V supply.
OIP3 and output power for 1 dB compression (OP1dB) can be increased by adjusting a supply-referenced resistor connected to the RBIAS pin. The RF input and output of the ADL8141 are internally matched and AC-coupled.
The ADL8141 is fabricated on a GaAs, pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (pHEMT), monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) process. The ADL8141 is housed in a RoHS-compliant, 2 x 2 mm, eight-lead LFCSP, and is specified for operation from -40 to 85°C.
Suitable applications include Ku and K band satellite communications. An evaluation kit, EVAL-ADL8141 is available from the manufacturer.

As soon as electronics and electrical systems started interfering with each other, the world had to come to some consensus. Considering physics is universal and does not care about what country electrical/electronic products are used in, it should be the same everywhere, right? It is nearly there, but not quite.
