WS7918DC
CMOS High Gain GPS LNA
Descriptions
The WS7918DC is a low noise amplifier (LNA) for GPS
receiver applications, available in a small 6-pin DFN
package. The WS7918DC requires only one external
inductor for input matching.
The WS7918DC is designed to achieve low power
dissipation and good performance.
