Description
M/A-COM’s AM-134 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 flatpack with flanges. Due to the
metal flatpack the thermal rise minimized. The ground plane on
the PC board should be configured to remove heat from under the
package. AM-134 is ideally suited for use where a high intercept,
high reliability amplifier is required.

2. All specifications apply when operated at +15 VDC, with 50 ohms source and load impedance.
3. Heat Sinking: Operation at case temperature above 95°C is not recommended. Heat sinking adequate to dissipate 1.35W must be provided in use.
