The TDGB014 from Teledyne e2v HiRel is a cascadable broadband InGaP MMIC amplifier that operates from DC to 14 GHz. The amplifier is available in gain configurations of 13.6 dB, 16.5 dB, 18.4 dB and has a noise figure of 5.5 dB. It is available in a 2-lead, hermetic, 6.6 x 3.6 mm ceramic package and is ideal for linear & saturated amplifier applications, VSAT, military and test equipment applications.
This 50-ohm gain block is based upon a mature and reliable heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT), InGaP process and incorporates proprietary Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) design techniques. The process has space-flight heritage and has shown to be radiation tolerant to 100 krad, making it a viable choice for satellites and other high-altitude applications.
