Mini-Circuits’ ZVA-183A-S+ is a coaxial, wideband RF amplifier capable of operating from 700 MHz to 18 GHz. The design can deliver output power of +27 dBm at saturation and +24 dBm typ. at 1dB compression, making it an ideal choice for applications requiring a wideband driver amplifier. With a low noise figure of 4 dB typ. across majority of the band, it can be used in test setups that require higher dynamic range. Complementary safety features such as protection against DC transients, overvoltage and reverse voltage conditions ensure that the amplifier stays protected against mishandling.
