AA028P2-99

Description

The AA028P2-99 is a broadband millimeterwave amplifier
in a rugged package.The amplifier is designed for use in
millimeterwave communication and sensor systems as a
gain stage in the receiver, transmitter, or local oscillator
chain. The robust ceramic and metal package provides
excellent electrical performance, excellent thermal
performance, and a high degree of environmental
protection for long-term reliability. A single supply voltage
simplifies bias requirements. All amplifiers are screened
at the operating frequencies prior to shipment for
guaranteed performance. Amplifier is targeted for
millimeterwave point-to-point and point-to-multipoint
wireless communications systems.
