TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

PE15A5002

PE15A5002 is a 10W S-band high gain, high power coaxial amplifier operating in the 3.1 to 3.5 GHz frequency range. The
amplifier offers 40 dBm of saturated output power and high 45 dB typical small signal gain with the gain flatness of ±1.5dB. This
excellent technical performance is achieved through the use of hybrid MIC design and advanced GaAs PHEMT devices. The
high power amplifier amplifier requires typically a +12V DC power supply. The connectorized SMA module is unconditionally
stable and includes built-in voltage regulation, bias sequencing, and reverse bias protection for added reliability. The amplifier
operates over the temperature range of -10°C and +60°C.
