MAAL-011161

Low Phase Noise Amplifier

The MAAL-011161 is an easy to use low phase noise amplifier assembled in a lead-free 5 mm 32-lead air cavity QFN plastic package. It operates from 2 - 18 GHz and provides -169 dBc/Hz phase noise, 14 dB gain and +25 dBm PSAT. The input and output are fully matched to 50  with typical return loss >10 dB. This product is fabricated using a GaAs HBT process which features full passivation for enhanced reliability. The MAAL-011161 is ideally suited for Radar, Test and Measurement, EW, ECM, and Microwave Communication Systems applications.
