Coaxial Low Noise Amplifier ZX60-83LN12+ 50 0.5 to 8 GHz The Big Deal Extremely wideband, 0.5 to 8 GHz Low Noise, 1.4 dB at 2 GHz CASE STYLE: GC957 High IP3, +35 dBm at 2 GHz Excellent gain flatness 1.5 dB over 0.5 to 7 GHz 12V Product Overview Mini-Circuits ZX60-83LN12+ 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- dynamic range receiver applications and many systems where high performance over wideband is needed. This design operates on a single 12V supply and comes in a rugged, compact unibody case (0.74 x 0.75 x 0.46) with SMA connectors, making it an excellent candidate for tough operating conditions and crowded system layouts. Key Features Feature Advantages Ultra-wideband with excellent gain flatness, Enables a single amplifier to be used in a wide range of applications including WiFi, LTE, S-Band 1.5 dB radar, C-band SATCOM, defense, instrumentation and more. Low noise over the whole band Enables lower system noise figure performance. High gain, 21 dB typ. Reduces the number of gain stages, lowering component count and overall system cost. High IP3: The combination of low noise and high IP3 makes the ZX60-83LN12+ ideal for use in low noise +35.2 dBm at 2 GHz receiver front end (RFE) as it gives the user the advantages of sensitivity and two-tone IM perfor- +28.5 dBm at 8 GHz mance at both ends of the dynamic range. Mini-Circuits unibody construction integrates the RF connector into the case body, providing high Rugged, uni-body construction reliability and excellent survivability in critical applications.
