JCA Amplifiers
These JCA amplifiers feature an average gain tracking of ±0.75 dB and ±1.5 dB gain matching across a 2 to 18 GHz bandwidth. The amplifiers are manufactured utilizing an automated assembly process that uses precise pick-and-place machinery and automatic wire-bonding. The result is reliable and repeatable gain matching and phase tracking performance, and reduced RF tuning times by 30 percent.
