PMA-183PLN+ Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The PMA-183PLN+ from Mini-Circuits is a wideband MMIC amplifier designed for receiver applications. It features a PHEMT-based design, providing a unique combination of high gain with a positive gain slope, high directivity, and a low noise figure.

 

This amplifier operates over a frequency range of 6 to 18 GHz, with a typical gain of 29.7 dB and a noise figure as low as 1.2 dB at 15 GHz. The positive gain slope is beneficial for compensating negative gain slopes in other microwave components. It also boasts high directivity of 33 dB, which can eliminate the need for an isolator in many broadband buffering applications.

 

The PMA-183PLN+ is designed for 50 Ohm systems and operates on a single 2.6V supply. It comes in a compact 3.5 x 2.5 mm, 16-lead MCLP package, suitable for dense circuit board layouts. Key applications include C, X, and Ku-Band radar, satellite communication, and ELINT systems.
