The Mini-Circuits ZVA-183G-S+ is a Class-A wideband amplifier designed for applications requiring flat gain from 0.5 to 18 GHz, such as radar, satellite repeaters, and test instrumentation. It features SMA female connectors, operates from a +15 V supply, and draws up to 770 mA. The amplifier provides a typical gain of 38 dB with gain flatness of ±2.0 dB across its band, a noise figure of 3 dB typ., and an output third-order intercept point of +36 dBm typ. Maximum output power at 1 dB compression is +25 dBm, with +27 dBm at 3 dB compression. It is housed in a rugged case measuring 4.18 × 3.36 × 3.57 inches and includes protection against reverse bias and open or short loads.
Mini-Circuits’ ZVA-183G+ is a Class-A, four-stage, unconditionally stable amplifier providing flat gain over an extremely wide frequency range from 0.5 to 18 GHz. This model is capable of delivering up to ½W output power at Psat with low noise and high IP3 supporting a wide range of sensitive, high-dynamic range receiver applications and many systems where high performance over wideband is needed. It operates on a +15V supply and features built-in safety features including protection against reverse bias and immunity to accidental open or short loads. The amplifier comes in a rugged, compact case (4.18 x 3.36 x 3.57”) with SMA connectors and an optional heat sink for efficient cooling.
