VHF UHF Low Noise amplifiers MAX2664 MAX2665 circuit
A very simple low cost and ultra compact VHF UHF Low-Noise amplifiers circuit can be designed using the MAX2664 and MAX2665 ultra-compact LNAs for VHF/UHF applications.
These devices incorporate a broadband LNA with an integrated bypass switch. The MAX2664 covers the UHF frequency range from 470MHz to 860MHz, and the MAX2665 covers the VHF frequency range from 75MHz to 230MHz. Each device has a zero-power bypass mode for improved high-signal-level handling conditions.
![]( "As")
As you can see in the presented circuit diagram , this RF project requires very few external components . Both ICs has a high gain around 15dB and require a single power supply , that can provide an output voltage between 2.4 to 3.5 volts .
VHF UHF Low-Noise amplifiers has a very low current consumption of 3.3 mA and can be used in applications like : Smartphones/Handsets , MP3 Players , Home Audio/Video and other portable navigation devices .

Bed Room Noise Detector Circuit Schematic
This schema is intended to signal, through a flashing LED, the exceeding of a fixed threshold in room noise, chosen from three fixed levels, namely 50, 70 & 85 dB. Two Op-amps provide the necessary schema gain for sounds picked-up by a miniature electret microphone to drive a LED. With SW1 in the first position the schema is off. Second, third and fourth positions power the schema and set the input sensitivity threshold to 85, 70 & 50 dB respectively. Current drawing is 1mA with LED off and 12-15mA when the LED is steady on.

C3 = 470µF-25V
C4 = 47µF-25V
D1 = 5mm. Red LED
Q1 = BC327
B1 = 9V PP3 Battery
SW1 = 2 poles 4 ways rotary switch

Use:
- Place the small box containing the schema in the room where you intend to measure ambient noise.
- The 50 dB setting is provided to monitor the noise in the bedroom at night. If the LED is steady on, or flashes bright often, then your bedroom is inadequate and too noisy for sleep.
- The 70 dB setting is for living-rooms. If this level is often exceeded during the day, your apartment is rather uncomfortable.
- If noise level is constantly over 85 dB, 8 hours a day, then you are living in a dangerous environment.
