A1212 / SMA1212 Cascadable Amplifier 100 to 1200 MHz Rev. V3 Features Product Image • VERY LOW NOISE: 1.8 dB (TYP.) • HIGH OUTPUT POWER: +19 dBm (TYP.) • HIGH POWER ADDED EFFICIENCY: 20% Description The A1212 RF amplifier is a discrete hybrid design, which uses thin film manufacturing processes for accurate performance and high reliability. This feedback amplifier design uses 2 GaAs FET transistors In parallel, and displays impressive performance characteristics over a broadband frequency range. An RF choke is used for DC power supply decoupling. Both TO-8 and Surface Mount packages are hermetically sealed, and MIL-STD-883 environmental screening is available. Ordering Information Part Number Package A1212 TO-8 SMA1212 Surface Mount CA1212 ** SMA Connectorized ** The connectorized version is not RoHs compliant.
