Low-Noise-Amplifier optimised for minimum Noise Figure at
1.9 GHz using BFP420
This application note provides general information, print layout and list of used components, circuit layout and
measured data of a low noise amplifier at 1.9 GHz using SIEMENS SIEGET®25 BFP420. This circuit is optimised
for low noise figure values.

The amplifier application circuit has been optimised to achieve optimum noise figure and good stability at 1.9 GHz,
combined with low operating current and voltage for use in handheld equipment.
The transistor is matched using microstrip lines at input and output in conjunction with capacitors to ground. The
added emitter inductance reduces gain but it provides the best overall matching conditions for maximum gain and
minimum noise figure. The active bias controller BCR400W is used to provide bias stability over the operating
temperature range. For additional information on this part please refer to application note No.014. The collector
resistor is used for increase stability for the RF-transistor and omits the need to use λ/4 transmission lines for
biasing. In order to avoid AF oscillations for the BCR400W, the blocking capacitor at the base of the RF transistor
should be at least ten times the value used at collector.
