AM-153 Low Noise Amplifier, 12 dB Gain, 300 - 1800 MHz Rev. V3 Features TO-8-1 • 1.9 dB Typical Midband Noise Figure • +7.5 dBm Typical Midband Output Power • +19 dBm Typical Midband Third Order Intercept Description M/A-COM’s AM-153 is a coupler feedback amplifier with low noise figure. The use of coupler feedback minimizes noise figure and current in a high intercept amplifier. This amplifier is packaged in a TO-8 package. This unique design features low noise figure over a wide bandwidth. AM-153 is ideally suited for use where a low noise, wideband, high reliability amplifier is required.
