TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
PE15A5015
PE15A5015 is a GaAs amplifer module designed for linear applications inclusing COFDM video and UAV/UGV data links. The
PE15A5015 can provide over 5 Watts of analog FM power and operates in the 1.7 to 2.5 GHz frequency range. The amplifier
offers 1 Watt of Linear COFDM of output power and 11 dB typical small signal gain with the gain flatness of ±0.5 dB typical.
This excellent technical performance is achieved through the use of hybrid MIC design and advanced GaAs PHEMT devices.
The driver amplifier requires typically a +12V DC power supply. The connectorized SMA module is unconditionally stable and
includes built-in voltage regulation, bias sequencing, and reverse bias protection, and thermal protection for added reliability.
The amplifier operates over the temperature range of -10°C and +80°C.
