The ZX60-16213+ from Mini-Circuits is a Medium-power Amplifier that operates from 16 to 21 GHz. It provides a gain of 20 dB, a P1 dB of 23 dBm, and an output IP3 of 33 dBm. This power amplifier incorporates several DC protection features, such as reverse voltage protection and internal sequencing, which prevents it from turning on without the required negative voltage. It requires a single positive & negative DC voltage supply of +5 &-6 V to operate and consumes less than 350 mA of power.
The ZX60-16213+ is suitable for use in systems where high linearity is needed, and it is an excellent choice for tough operating conditions and crowded system layouts. This amplifier is available in a rugged, compact unibody module that measures 1.2 x 0.75 x 0.46 inches and has SMA female connectors. It is ideal for microwave point-to-point radios, military EW, radar, satellite systems, and K-band SATCOM applications.
