Mini-Circuits’ PMA5-123-3W+ is a GaAs MMIC power amplifier operating from 8 to 12 GHz. This internally matched 50Ω amplifier provides 28.3 dB of gain, +35.7 dBm saturated output power, and +43.8 dBm output IP3, while operating from a +7 V power supply and consuming 1250 mA of current. In addition, an integrated power detector allows for seamless output power monitoring. These characteristics make it ideally suited for microwave radio, satellite communications, and radar systems that require high operating output power, while maintaining very low distortion characteristics.
