AM-/AMC-147 High Performance Amplifier, 17 dB Gain, 5 - 500 MHz Features V 3.00 TO-8-1 n 2 dB Typical Midband Noise Figure n +20 dBm Typical Midband Output Power n +38 dBm Typical Midband Third Order Intercept Description M/A-COM’s AM-147 is a coupler feedback amplifier with high intercept and compression points. The use of coupler feedback minimizes noise figure and current in a high intercept amplifier. This amplifier is packaged in a TO-8 package. Due to the internal power dissipation the thermal rise minimized. The ground plane on the PC board should be configured to remove heat from under the package. AM-147 is ideally suited for use where a high intercept, high reliability amplifier is required. C-32 Absolute Maximum Ratings 1 Parameter Absolute Maximum Max.
