Description

The RA62 RF amplifier is a discrete hybrid design, which uses

thin film manufacturing processes for accurate performance

and high reliability.

This two stage GaAs FET feedback amplifier design displays

impressive performance characteristics over a broadband

frequency range. Both TO-8 and Surface Mount packages

are hermetically sealed, and MIL-STD-883 environmental screen-

ing is available

.
