A next generation, “size matters” 1 kW power amplifier from Empower RF Systems, already deployed at a customer site overseas, had its operating software and user interface successfully updated via a software patch that was downloaded from a secure web portal and installed with a USB drive inserted directly into the back panel of the amplifier.
Custom MMIC announces the introduction of the CMD158P3, a new broadband driver amplifier ideally suited for mixer LO chains, passive multipliers, and medium power applications. The CMD158P3 covers 6 to 14 GHz and delivers 20 dB of gain with +20 dBm of saturated power while requiring a single +5 V supply at 95 mA.
The Giga-tronics microwave power amplifiers offer linear high-power amplification across multi-octave bandwidths. These instrumentation grade amplifiers offer low noise, high gain and outstanding gain flatness, for testing in wireless communications, defense EW and radar testing and general purpose microwave laboratory applications.
PMI Model No. PE2-25-218-20-12-SFF is a 2.0 to 18.0 GHz low noise amplifier that provides greater than 25 dB of gain while maintaining a maximum gain flatness of ±1.5 dB maximum over the operating frequency. The noise figure is 4.5 dB typical and offers an OP1dB of +20 dBm minimum. The operating voltage is +12 to 15 VDC and the current draw is 300 mA maximum.
PMI model SDLVA-315M362M successive detection log video amplifiers (SDLVA) offers 65 dB dynamic range over the frequency range of 315 to 362 MHz. This model offers a fast rise time of 35 nsec maximum and a recovery time of less than 500 nsec. The unit is temperature compensated such that log accuracy over temperature remains less than +/-2.5 dB over the full operating temperature range of -33° to +77° C.
PMI Model No. PUB-15-500M20G-20-LCA is a 500 MHz to 20.0 GHz low noise amplifier which provides 15 db of gain while maintaining a gain flatness of ±1.75 db typically over the operating frequency. The noise figure is 3 dB typical and offers a typical OP1 dB of +20 dBm. The amplifier requires +12 to +15 VDC and the current draw is 225 mA typical.
PMI Model No. PEC-37-9G10G-3R0-27-SFF is a low noise amplifier that operates over the 9.0 to 10.0 GHz frequency range. This model provides 28 dB of gain and offers a low noise figure of 3.0 dB maximum. The amplifier provides an OP1 dB is +27 dBm minimum and operates on +10 to +15 VDC with 400 mA of typical current draw.
PMI Model No. PEC3-40-30M26R5G-6R0-12-12-SFF is a 30 MHz to 26.5 GHz low noise amplifier that provides greater than 35 dB of gain while maintaining a maximum gain flatness of ±3.5dB maximum over the operating frequency. The noise figure is 6.0 dB typical and offers an OP1dB of +12 dBm minimum. The operating voltage is +12 to 15 VDC and the current draw is 700 mA maximum.
PMI Model No. PE2-35-1R02R0-1R4-17-12-SFF is a low noise amplifier that operates over the 1.0 to 2.0 GHz frequency range. This model provides 35 dB of gain and offers a low noise figure of 1.4 dB typically. The amplifier provides an OP1 dB is +17 dBm and operates on +12 to +15VDC with 160 mA of typical current draw.
