FMAM86000

Overview

The FMAM86000 is an RF amplifier manufactured by Fairview Microwave, designed for general-purpose applications. It operates as a DC coupled amplifier with a frequency range from DC to 2 GHz. The device provides 8 dB of gain and features an input third-order intercept point (OIP3) of 15 dBm. Key performance metrics include a 1 dB compression point (P1dB) of 11 dBm. It requires a supply voltage between 4 V and 15 V and draws a typical current of 25 mA. The component utilizes SMA connectors and is packaged in a bag.

Feature Summary

• DC coupled operation enabling signal amplification from direct current up to 2 GHz
• General-purpose design suitable for broad-spectrum RF signal processing
• Integrated SMA interface connectors for standard RF system integration

Applications

• Low-frequency RF signal conditioning and amplification
• Test and measurement equipment requiring DC-coupled amplification
• Communication systems operating within the DC to 2 GHz spectrum

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version provided by Fairview Microwave or authorized distributors to confirm electrical tolerances and connector specifications. Ensure that the procurement channel is an authorized source to guarantee component authenticity and compliance with RoHS standards. Cross-reference the part number FMAM86000 against official manufacturer catalogs to validate current availability status and any potential obsolescence notices before finalizing orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-gain, DC-coupled solution is required for frequencies up to 2 GHz. Consider the 8 dB gain and 11 dBm P1dB output power limits to ensure compatibility with downstream circuitry requirements. Evaluate the 25 mA current consumption against available power budgets. Confirm that SMA connector types align with existing board layouts and interconnect infrastructure.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Fairview Microwave RF amplifier product line, specifically categorized under general-purpose amplifiers. It serves as a specialized component for wireless and RF integrated circuit applications where DC coupling is necessary. The FMAM86000 complements other models in the series by offering distinct frequency and gain characteristics tailored for lower-frequency RF environments compared to higher-frequency counterparts.

Replacement Considerations

Consult Fairview Microwave official documentation for verified substitute part numbers. Do not assume functional equivalence with other models without explicit manufacturer confirmation regarding pinout, gain, and frequency response alignment.
