41 dB Gain, 1 Watt, 8 GHz to 12 GHz, Medium Power High Gain Amplifier, 3.5 dB NF, SMA TECHNICAL DATA SHEET PE15A4008 PE15A4008 is a 1 W X-band high gain coaxial power amplifier in the 8 to 12 GHz frequency range. The amplifier offers 30 dBm of P1db (min) and 41 dB (min) small signal gain with the excellent gain flatness of ±1.0 dB. This performance is achieved through using hybrid MIC design and advanced GaAs PHEMT devices. The amplifier requires typically a +12V 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 +70°C.
