The Agilent microwave system amplifiers are compact, off-the-shelf amplifiers designed for systems designers
and integrators. This family of amplifiers provides power where you need
it to recover system losses and to
boost available power in RF and microwave ATE systems.
The ultrabroad bandwidth from 10 MHz
to 50 GHz allows the designer to
replace several narrow bandwidth
amplifiers with a single Agilent amplifier, eliminating the need for crossover
networks or multiple bias supplies.
The 83050A power amplifier and
83051A preamplifier expand frequency
performance to 50 GHz, while the
1 Watt 83020A offers broadband
power to 26 GHz. The small amplifier
footprint allows for simple in-line
insertion to existing system blocks
that require amplification. The standard 83017A, 83018A, and 83020A
include internal directional detectors
for external leveling applications.
The 83020A is optionally available
without the coupler-detector providing up to +30 dBm and +25 dBm,
respectively. With excellent noise figure relative to their broad bandwidth
and high gain, these amps significantly improve system noise figure and
dynamic range. These products come
equipped with a low profile heat sink,
an integral mounting bracket, and a
two-meter DC power supply cable.
Thermal and power supply design
allows fast, easy integration into most
measurement systems.

Product Overview
2
Applications
Small envelope size makes the Agilent
Technologies family of microwave
system amplifiers ideal for automated
test and benchtop applications, offering the f lexibility to place power
where you need it.
Boost Source Output Power
Increase output power from
microwave sources to increase test
system dynamic range. Drive high
input power devices such as TWTs,
mixers, power amps, or optical modulators. Drive test devices into compression for device characterization.
Recover Systematic Losses
The microwave system amplifiers
help solve the power loss from connectors, cables, switches, and signal
routing components which consume
valuable source power. Long transmission paths, common in antenna
applications, are particularly susceptible to such losses.
Level Source Power
By using feedback to an external
source ALC input, system designers
can level output power at the test
port, negating the effects of postsweeper reflections and losses.
Simply route the directional detector
output to the source external ALC
input connector. The figures at right
show typical results.
The 83020A, 83018A, and 83017A feature an integral directional detector
to supply feedback. To level an 83006A
amplifier, use the 0.01 to 26.5 GHz
83036C directional detector or the
1 to 26.5 GHz 87300C coupler with
an 8474C detector.

Improve Measurements
The 83006A, 83017A, and 83051A
preamplifiers increase the sensitivity
and dynamic range of spectrum
analyzers. Add a preamplifier to
noise figure measurement systems
to significantly lower system noise
figure. The table below shows typical
system noise figure reduction achievable with these amplifiers. Note that
the reduced system noise figure is
dominated by the preamplifier noise
figure. See Application Note 57-2,
literature number 5952-3706.
Benchtop Gain Block
Benchtop microwave design tasks
often require amplification to measure low level output characteristics,
improve system dynamic range,
perform saturation tests, or boost
power levels. The Agilent family of
system amplifiers offers small size
and immediate, off-the-shelf solutions
to microwave design, production,
or test engineers.
Pulse Parameter Measurements
Fast rise time and multi-octave
bandwidth make these amplifiers
attractive for fast pulse parameter
measurements. The 0.01, 0.5, and
2 GHz cutoff frequencies make them
more useful for RF or impulse measurements with low duration times.

Specifications: describe the instrument’s warranted performance over the temperature range +20° C to +30° C (unless otherwise noted). All specifications apply after the
instrument’s temperature has been stabilized after one hour continuous operation. Typical characteristics are intended to provide information useful in applying the instrument
by giving typical but nonwarranted performance parameters. These are denoted as “typical” or “nominal” and apply over the temperature range +20° C to +30° C.
Caution on Electrostatic Discharge: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic components. It is recommended that these amplifiers, like other electronic
components, be installed and operated at a static-free workstation or in an environment where precautions against ESD have been implemented.
