CMD295C4 2-20 GHz Driver Amplifier Product Overview The CMD295C4 is a wideband driver amplifier housed in a leadless surface mount package ideally suited for military, space and communications systems where small size and high linearity are needed. At 10 GHz the device delivers greater than 27 dB of gain with a corresponding output 1 dB compression point of +16 dBm and an output IP3 of 29 dBm. The CMD295C4 is a 50 ohm matched design which eliminates the need for external DC blocks and RF port matching.
