We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "LNA",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Design speeds development of Internet radio from
Cambridge Silicon Radio, which we summarised at the time by saying "CSR's low cost RadioPro design has enabled NTEEP to produce a versatile module that can easily be adopted to provide Wi-Fi functionality".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Collaboration slashes GPS costs from
Cambridge Silicon Radio: "CSR's software approach eliminates the need for a dedicated GPS baseband, reducing the cost of the module to less than half of what competitors are able to offer".
In November 2007, we covered the news from Maxim Integrated Products
concerning its MAX2769E
- take a look at Navigation receiver claims universal application
which says: "The MAX2769E/W is the first navigation satellite system receiver to cover GPS (L1 C/A code and P-code), WAAS, Egnos, Galileo and Glonass navigation satellite systems".
Take a look also at the news release from Gigahertz Marketing Solutions, More power to wireless networks,
as well as Receivers cover microwave bands from 7 to 28GHz from Link Microtek,
and Direct-conversion tuner cuts costs from Maxim Integrated Products.
