AMP-1520/2BX
ULTRA LINEAR DRIVER UHF
AMPLIFIER BOARD 1.5-2.2 GHz 2.5W
The AMP-1520/2BX is a discrete hybrid linear power
amplifier design, which uses thick film solder
manufacturing processes for accurate performance
and high reliability.
This 2 stage GaAs FET transistor design uses
feedback loops for flat broadband linear performance,
with very low noise figure. The model is particularly
suited for power driver applications used in the base
station & repeater infrastructure, and for commercial &
military radios. DC voltage 14V, driving 35 mW.
Features
• LOW NOISE FIGURE: 2.3 dB (TYP.)
• GAIN: 21.3 dB (TYP.)
• HIGH P1dB: +33.5 dBm (TYP.)
• HIGH IP3: +49 dBm (TYP.)
• BROADBAND RESPONSE: 1.5 GHz TO 2.2 GHz (TYP.)
