Description
M/A-COM’s AM40-0023 is a dual-channel, ultra low noise
amplifier in a surface mount package. Very low noise
figure is achieved by using discrete pHEMT devices
combined with M/A-COM’s glass technology.
The
AM40-0023 is designed specifically for use in DCS-1800
and PCS telecommunication applications where less than
1 dB noise figure is required.
Electrical Specifications:
Bias Conditions: +7V @ 20 mA Typical (each channel,) TA = +25°C, Z0 = 50 Ohms
