Description

M/A-COM’s AM-183 is a feedback amplifier with high
intercept and compression points. This amplifier is
packaged in a TO-8 package. Due to the internal power dis­sipation the thermal rise should be minimized. The ground
plane on the PC board should be configured to remove heat
from under the package. AM-183 is ideally suited for use
where a high compression, high reliability amplifier is re­quired.
