Product Description

The APT3‐05400590‐1010‐LS‐D4‐FAC is a Low Noiseamplifier with super‐low noise figure (<0.9dB, 0.7dBtypical). Lower NF options are also available withcustom flatness, VSWR, P1dB, and outline. An internallimiter at the input offers protection of up to 2W CW ofRF input power over the full band. There is provisionfor a Fault Alarm signal via one of the pins on theexternal MS3112E8‐4P connector (used for power) thatis triggered by a pre‐defined change in current draw.

Absolute Maximum Ratings*

* Stresses above those listed under "Absolute MaximumRating" may cause permanent damage to the device. Thisis a stress rating only and functional operation of the deviceat these or any other conditions above those indicated inthe operational sections of this specification is not implied.Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions forextended periods may affect device reliability. AllSTANDARD units are packaged in Aluminum housings thatare layered with electroless Nickel and then plated withGold to eliminate contamination of other adjacentelectronic components.
