The MM-BPA-180400-40-31 from Mountain Microwave Technology is a Power Amplifier that operates from 18 to 40 GHz. It delivers a saturated output power of 31 dBm (~1.25) with a small signal gain of 40 dB. The amplifier has a noise figure below 5.5 dB and a VSWR of less than 2:1. It requires a DC supply of 12 V and consumes less than 2.2 A of current.
The MM-BPA-180400-40-31 is internally regulated and is input/output impedance-matched to 50-ohm. It is available in a module that measures 60 x 50 x 12 mm with 2.92 mm (female) connectors and requires a heatsink for thermal protection. This amplifier is suitable for use in radar systems, communication systems, and receiver systems.
