A66-3 Datasheet, PDF (1/2 Pages) Tyco Electronics – 10 TO 1000 MHz CASCADABLE AMPLIFIER
A66-3 / SMA66-3
Cascadable Amplifier
10 to 1000 MHz
Rev. V3
Features
• HIGH GAIN - TWO STAGES: 26.0 dB (TYP.)
• LOW NOISE: <3.0 dB (TYP.)
• HIGH EFFICIENCY: 16 mA (TYP.) AT 5 VOLTS
Description
The A66-3 RF amplifier is a discrete hybrid design, which uses
thin film manufacturing processes for consistent performance
and high reliability.
This 2 stage bipolar transistor feedback amplifier design
displays impressive performance over a broadband
frequency range. An active DC biasing network insures
temperature-stable performance.
Both TO-8 and Surface Mount packages are hermetically
sealed, and MIL-STD-883 environmental screening is avail-
able.
