Description

The AM-131-PIN RF amplifier is a discrete thin film hybrid

design, which incorporates the use of thin film manufacturing

processes for accurate performance and high reliability. This

single stage bipolar transistor feedback amplifier design

displays impressive performance over a broadband

frequency range. An active DC biasing network is used for

temperature-stable performance, in addition to an RF Choke,

used for power supply decoupling.
