Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and package configuration against the official manufacturer datasheet before purchase. Confirm that the required frequency range and electrical specifications match the system design requirements precisely. Ensure compatibility with the intended connector type and mounting style. Check for any regional distribution restrictions or availability constraints directly with authorized suppliers.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a wideband low noise amplifier is required for frequencies between 18 GHz and 40 GHz. Consider the 30 dB gain and 4.0 dB noise figure for sensitive receiver front-end applications. Evaluate the 15 VDC supply requirement and thermal management needs for the -55°C to +85°C operating range. Compare against other LNA series models if different frequency bands or power levels are needed.
