Mini-Circuits’ ZVE-18GBX+ is a coaxial, wideband amplifier offering flat gain across a wide frequency range from 0.1 to 18 GHz. This model operates on a single +15 V supply with 720 mA typical current consumption and can deliver 2 W output power in saturation. The amplifier incorporates several DC-protection features such as over-voltage, under-voltage, reverse voltage, and in-rush current limiting that protect the amplifier from damage if mishandled during operation. The ZVE-18GBX+ comes in a rugged, compact case (2.13” x 1.68” x 0.74”) with SMA (f) RF connectors.
