TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

PE15A1005 is an L-band high gain low noise coaxial amplifier operating in the 1.2 to 1.4 GHz frequency range. The low

noise amplifier offers 15 dBm min of P1db and high 40 dB typical small signal gain with gain flatness of ±0.75dB typical. This

excellent technical performance is achieved through the use of hybrid MIC design and advanced GaAs PHEMT devices. The

low noise 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 for added reliability. The amplifier operates

over the temperature range of -40°C and +85°C.
