ZX60-10223G+

Overview

The ZX60-10223G+ is a wideband low noise connectorized amplifier from Mini-Circuits. It operates within a frequency range of 10 GHz to 20 GHz. The device provides a gain of 26 dB and maintains a typical noise figure of 2.3 dB. It features an input P1dB of 10 dBm and an output P1dB of 20 dBm. The amplifier requires a supply voltage of 5 V and draws a current of 79 mA. It utilizes GC957-2 connectors with dimensions of 0.75 x 0.74 x 0.75 inches.

Feature Summary

• Provides wideband amplification across the 10 to 20 GHz spectrum
• Delivers high gain combined with low noise figure performance
• Utilizes connectorized housing for direct integration into RF test setups

Applications

• Radar systems operating in K-band frequencies
• Satellite communication ground stations
• Wideband signal generation and testing equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision when ordering, as Mini-Circuits may update electrical specifications or mechanical drawings over time. Confirm that the GC957-2 connector type matches your system interface requirements. Ensure the 5 V power supply capability aligns with your design constraints before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed-gain, wideband solution is required for frequencies between 10 and 20 GHz. It is suitable for applications prioritizing low noise figure alongside moderate output power capabilities. Consider the connectorized form factor if modular testing or benchtop evaluation is preferred over surface-mount integration.

Part Context

This model belongs to the ZX60 series of low noise amplifiers produced by Mini-Circuits. The series focuses on providing reliable signal conditioning for microwave and millimeter-wave applications. The ZX60-10223G+ specifically targets the upper end of the X-band and lower K-band ranges, offering a standardized solution for engineers requiring predictable performance in wideband scenarios.
