The PAM-1840VH is a broadband preamplifier designed for a frequency range of 18 GHz to 40 GHz, making it suitable for various high-frequency applications. It offers a typical gain of 37 dB, with a minimum gain of 32 dB, and features a noise figure of 3.7 dB, which contributes to improved system sensitivity. The preamplifier has a flatness of +/- 3.7 dB and an output power at 1 dB compression of +6 dBm. With a typical VSWR of less than 2.9:1, the PAM-1840VH ensures efficient signal transmission. It is equipped with 2.9mm female connectors for easy integration into existing systems. The physical dimensions are compact, measuring 2.5 inches in height, 3.75 inches in width, and 6.25 inches in length, with a weight of 1.1 lbs (0.5 kg). This preamplifier is particularly well-suited for low-amplitude test measurements in both EMC labs and field environments.
Features
A.H. Systems' Preamplifier line is an excellent choice with a rugged design, no hassles with soldering your own power leads and they improve overall system sensitivity by at least 25 dB. All of A.H. Systems' Preamplifiers come with a 15-volt DC regulated power source. A low voltage indicator confidently allows you to power the amplifier with your own external 15-volt DC battery. This makes it a convenient choice for field measurements. See table above for amplifier specifications.
