The USMC10180 from US Microwave Laboratories are Low Noise Preamplifiers that operate from 0.1 to 18 GHz. They deliver a gain of 24/48 dB with a noise figure of less than 3 dB and have a P1dB of 16 dBm. The low noise figure and high gain of these amplifiers permit the visualization of signals that would otherwise appear below the noise floor in a radiated emissions test. They are available with an optional built-in battery and smart charger for field operation and zero electrical noise or power cables.
The USMC10180 conforms to the European RoHS requirements. They are IP65 / IP60 compliant and are ECCN EAR99 qualified. They are available in enclosures that measure 4.25 x 2.31 x 6.73 inches with a threaded lock. These amplifiers are ideal for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) testing and certification, antenna field measurements, and communication system applications.
