DATA SHEET
High Power Amplifier at 8 Watt Psat Operating From
2 GHz to 4 GHz with 39 dB Gain, 48 dBm IP3 and
SMA
FMAM5038 is a 8 W high gain Class A/AB coaxial power amplifier operating in the
2 to 4 GHz frequency range. The amplifier offers 8 Watts typical of saturated power
and 39 dB minimun small signal gain with ±1.5 dB maximum of gain flatness.
The amplifier requires typically a +13V DC power supply. The connectorized SMA
module is unconditionally stable and operates over the temperature range of 0°C
and +50°C. Adequate Heat Sink Required.
