The description sections and FAQ are machine-assisted and can contain errors; where they disagree with the record, the record is correct, and where description sections disagree with each other, Details wins._ ## Summary - Manufacturer: ALC Microwave - Model: AWB2018-23-22 - Condition: Used and in Excellent Condition - Price: $170.00 USD - Availability: In stock, 1 available - Warranty: 1-Year Warranty with 30-Day Return Guarantee - ITAR restricted: No - Shipping weight: 3 lb, estimated - Shipping dimensions: 8X8X3 in, estimated ## Categories - Test Equipment > Electrical Test > Amplifiers (primary) ## Details ### Configuration - Frequency Range: 2.0 - 18.0 GHz - Gain: 23 dB Minimum - Flatness: ±1.5 dB Maximum - Noise Figure: 4.5 dB Maximum - P-1dB: 22 dB Minimum - Output IP3: 32 dBm Typ. - VSWR In/Out: 2.2:1 Nom. - DC Current: 310 mA Nom. ## Function Performs broadband RF/microwave signal amplification over the 2.0 to 18.0 GHz frequency range. It is designed to deliver a minimum linear gain of 23 dB with a gain flatness of ±1.5 dB and a maximum noise figure of 4.5 dB. The amplifier provides a minimum output power of 22 dBm at the 1 dB compression point (P-1dB) with a typical third-order intercept point (OIP3) of 32 dBm, ensuring high linearity for complex signal environments. The input and output ports are nominally matched with a VSWR of 2.2:1. ## Images - - - -
