Only a single 3-5V positive supply is required for bias. Amplifier gain of the TQL9044 is rated at 19 dB with OIP3 of 34.5 dBm.

In addition to the TQL9044, TriQuint offers two complementary bypass LNAs; the TQL9042 covering 0.5 to 2 GHz and the TQL9043 covering 1.5 to 2.7 GHz. All three devices come in 3x3mm DFN packaging.
