FMAM4051

Overview

The FMAM4051 is a medium power broadband RF amplifier manufactured by Fairview Microwave. It operates within a frequency range of 2 GHz to 18 GHz and features SMA connectors. The device provides a gain of 12 dB with an output power of 16 dBm at the 1 dB compression point (P1dB). Designed for robust performance, it includes an integrated heatsink to manage thermal dissipation during operation.

Feature Summary

• Broadband amplification capability across the 2 GHz to 18 GHz spectrum
• Integrated heatsink structure for enhanced thermal management
• Medium power output configuration suitable for signal conditioning

Applications

• Test and measurement instrumentation systems
• Wireless communication infrastructure components
• Broadband signal generation and distribution networks

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version provided by Fairview Microwave or authorized distributors to confirm current electrical tolerances and mechanical dimensions. Ensure that the SMA connector interface matches the system requirements. Confirm availability status as supply conditions may vary by region and distributor channel.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a wide bandwidth from 2 GHz to 18 GHz is required in a single stage. The 12 dB gain and 16 dBm P1dB output suit applications needing moderate signal boosting without excessive power consumption. The SMA interface offers standard connectivity compatibility for laboratory and industrial setups.

Part Context

This amplifier belongs to Fairview Microwave's portfolio of RF active components designed for high-frequency applications. It complements their passive adapter and cable assembly lines by providing active signal enhancement capabilities within the UHF and microwave frequency bands.

Replacement Considerations

No public substitute part numbers are documented in the available source material. Cross-reference with other broadband amplifiers only if pinout and connector specifications align perfectly.
