AM-177 Datasheet, PDF (1/2 Pages) Tyco Electronics – Cascadable Thin Film Amplifier, 12 dB Gain, 10 - 1000 MHz

AM-177
Cascadable Thin Film Amplifier,
10 dB Gain, 10 - 1000 MHz
Features
• +22 dBm Typical High 1 dB Compression
• +38 dBm Typical High Third Order Intercept
• 1.2:1 Typical VSWR
Description
M/A-COM’s AM-177 is a feedback amplifier with high
intercept and compression points. This amplifier is
packaged in a TO-8 package. Due to the internal
power dissipation the thermal rise should be
minimized. The ground plane on the PC board
should be configured to remove heat from under the
package. AM-177 is ideally suited for use where a
high intercept, high reliability amplifier is required.

1. All specifications apply when operated at +15 VDC, with 50 ohms source and load impedance.
2. Heat Sinking: Operation at case temperature above 95°C is not recommended. Heat sinking adequate to dissipate 1.75W must be
provided in use.
