Revision 5/7/2012 Legend Typical Performance Data +25 ºC +85 ºC - - - - - - -55 ºC The CZ846X Series Amplifiers are designed for applications in 50 ohm systems. Three external capacitors are required. The external capacitors determine the low frequency response of the Amplifier. Schematic Diagram +Vcc The CZ846X Series Amplifiers can be cascaded in series of two or more units without oscillation problems.
