1 Watt, 8.5 GHz to 11 GHz, Medium Power Amplifier, 30 dB Gain, 38 dBm IP3, 3 dB NF, SMA TECHNICAL DATA SHEET PE15A4006 PE15A4006 is a 1 W X-band coaxial power amplifier designed for high linearity applications in the 8.5 to 11 GHz frequency range. The amplifier offers 26 dB small signal gain with the excellent gain flatness of ±0.75 dB and the IP3 performance of 36 dBm. High power devices utilized in the amplifier provide excellent linearity, high gain and wide dynamic range. High efficiency is achieved through using hybrid MIC design and advanced GaAs PHEMT devices. The amplifier requires a +15V DC power supply. The connectorized SMA module is unconditionally stable and includes built-in voltage regulation, bias sequencing, and reverse bias protection for added reliability. The amplifier operates over the temperature range of -30°C and +60°C.
