Procurement Notes

Verify availability status directly with authorized distributors as supply may be restricted in certain regions. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix matches the required package type and termination style. Ensure compliance with regional export regulations, particularly for United States-based transactions, before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this amplifier when a fixed 16 dB gain and 500 mW output are required within the 6-12 GHz band. Consider thermal management requirements due to medium power dissipation. Verify impedance matching for 50 Ohm systems. Compare against higher-power alternatives if output levels exceed 500 mW needs.

Part Context

This component belongs to Fairview Microwave's RF amplifier portfolio, specifically targeting medium-power broadband applications. It complements other models in the series that offer varying gain and power levels. The design supports integration into compact microwave circuits requiring stable amplification without significant bandwidth compromise.

Replacement Considerations
