This compact amplifier is ideal for emerging broadband satellite uplink applications. Its leading-edge MMIC-based design provides good linearity and close 1 GHz of bandwidth.
The ITS 8 Watt Ka-Band Amplifier can be used as a standalone component of a transmitter or transceiver or as a driver for a TWT or Klystron-based High Power amplifier.
Similar products in this family are available with up to 1.5 GHz of bandwidth and center frequencies from 24-30 GHz, allowing application for high data rate broadband data link.
