Description
The Celeritek CMM2306 is a premium performance,
pin-for-pin compatible second source for the TriQuint®9132
and the Mini-Circuits®VNA. Providing higher gain and lower
noise figure than either of the existing standard amplifiers at
25% less drain current, the CMM2306 is an excellent choice
for power sensitive applications, while delivering more design
margin than either of the existing alternatives. This device
will drop into existing sockets and offers the same single supply, broadband, 50Ωmatched and DC blocked input and output features and performance, that the industry has come to
expect, with much higher efficiency and lower current.
Packaged in a low-cost surface mount SOIC-8 package, the CMM2306 offers superior performance to existing
alternatives at a competitive price.
