TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
PE15A3260
PE15A3260 is a Broadband High Gain GaAs PHEMT MMIC-based coaxial Low Noise Amplifier, operating in the 18 to 26.5
GHz frequency range. The amplifier offers 2 dB Noise Figure, 13 dBm of P1dB and 40 dB small signal gain, with gain
flatness of ±1.0 dB, along with 22 dBm IP3 performance. This low noise amplifier requires only a single positive DC supply, is
unconditionally stable, operates over the temperature range of -40°C to 85°C, and is characterized by light weight (25 g) and
small size (1.5”x1.0”x0.4”).
