The ZVE-6W-83+ is a high-power amplifier designed for 50Ω applications from 2 to 8 GHz, delivering up to 6 W output power at saturation with 33 dB typical gain and +40 dBm typical third-order intercept point. It operates on a +15 V supply, features built-in protection against reverse bias and load faults, and is housed in a rugged CP1978-1 case measuring 2.61 × 2.43 × 0.74 inches with SMA female connectors. An integrated heatsink and fan are included for thermal management, with a maximum baseplate temperature of +60 °C under ambient conditions. Gain flatness across the band is ±2.0 dB, and it exhibits input and output VSWR below 2.5:1. The part is RoHS compliant.
Mini-Circuits’ ZVE-6W-83(X)+ is a Class A & Class AB, four-stage, unconditionally stable amplifier providing flat gain over a wide frequency range from 2 to 8 GHz. This model is capable of delivering up to 6 W output power at P with high IP3 supporting SAT a wide range of systems where high performance over wideband is needed. It operates on a +15 V 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 (2.61x2.43x0.74”) with SMA connectors and an optional heatsink for efficient cooling.
