7 | The Osmo-BTS-LNA is a low noise amplifier intended for DCS uplink reception (MS->BTS). This is DCS1800 for GSM and band 3 for both UMTS and LTE. |

11 | The board consumes about 200mA @5V. It intregrates a MIC5219-5 LDO and should be supplied with 5.5-12V DC (7V nom.), either |
||
12 | * by local connection (DC input), or |
||
13 | * by 'phantom power' via DC biasing from the RF output. |
||
14 | |||
15 | The RF port can be used with U.FL/IPEX or SMA by moving a coupling capacitor. Bias sourcing is available via SMA. |
