Device Overview

General Description

The AMM2-0020UH is a broadband amplifier enabling operation over a 10 MHz to 20 GHz frequency range. The amplifier features a 29 dB flat gain response, +23 dBm saturated output power, excellent return losses, and a low 2.5 dB noise figure. This amplifier is housed in a 1” x 1.7” connectorized module and operates with a single positive bias supply without the need for sequencing.

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.

The Recommended Operating Conditions indicate the limits, inside which the device should be operated, to guarantee the performance given in Electrical Specifications. Operating outside these limits may not necessarily cause damage to the device, but the performance may degrade outside the limits of the Electrical Specifications. For limits, above which damage may occur, see Absolute Maximum Ratings.
