Device Overview

General Description

The ADM1-8007APC is a high-linearity, high gain, low noise distributed amplifier capable of providing +22dBm output power up to 35 GHz. When driven with an input power of 0 to +5 dBm, the ADM1-8007APC can provide sufficient LO drive to power all H and most S diode mixers to 40GHz. The amplifier has excellent return losses and gain flatness. The ADM1-8007APC is a single-pin bias variant of the ADM1-8007PC. RF Performance is identical to the ADM1-8007PC.

Specifications

Absolute Maximum Ratings

The Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage may occur to the device. If these limits are exceeded, the device may become inoperable or have a reduced lifetime. Reliability limits are individual, instantaneous catastrophic limits only. Functional operation limits are indicated below. Operation of the device at multiple absolute maximum limits or for extended periods at a single limit can cause degradation and damage to the device.
