Coaxial Low Noise Amplifier ZX60-06183LN+ 50 6 to 18 GHz The Big Deal Low noise figure, 1.9 dB typ, 8 to 16 GHz Excellent gain flatness CASE STYLE: GC957 High gain broadband performance Voltage regulated internally and reverse voltage protected Excellent directivity, 20 dB typ. Product Overview Mini-Circuits ZX60-06183LN+ is a wideband low noise connectorized amplifier providing a unique combination of low noise figure, high IP3 and flat gain over a very wide frequency range, supporting a wide range of sensitive, high-dy - namic range receiver applications and many systems where high performance over wideband is needed. This design operates on a single 5 V supply and comes in a rugged, compact unibody case (0.74 x 0.75 x 0.46) with SMA con- nectors, making it an excellent candidate for tough operating conditions and crowded system layouts. Key Features Feature Advantages Ultra-wideband with excellent gain flat - Enables a single amplifier to be used in a wide range of applications including EW and communi - ness, 1 dB for entire band 6 - 18 GHz cation systems instrumentation and more. Low noise over the whole band Enables lower system noise figure performance. High gain, 25 dB typ. Reduces the number of gain stages, lowering component count and overall system cost. Low operating voltage, 5V The amplifier features low operating voltage Mini-Circuits unibody construction integrates the RF connector into the case body, providing high Rugged, unibody construction reliability and excellent survivability in critical applications. Excellent Directivity (Isolation-Gain), Ideal for use as a buffer amplifier, minimizing need for adjacent components. 20 dB typ Notes A.
