Description
The PE15B5003 is a high-power Bi-Directional Amplifier that utilizes GaN technology and covers a broad frequency band from 30 MHz to
2700 MHz. This amplifier produces 8W of Peak Tx Power while efficiently consuming only 24W of DC power. The design can also generate
2W of linear 16 QAM power with < 9% EVM. High efficiency operation in combination with a very small package size that weighs only 4 oz
makes it ideal for SWaP friendly commercial and military software defined radio (SDR) applications. The model offers up to 36 dB of small
signal gain and operates over a wide DC input range from +12 Vdc to +30 VDC. Manual Tx and Rx switching (TTL) time is 1 µsec typical.
The rugged package design operates over -40°C to +85°C, supports SMA-Female RF Connectors, and is guaranteed to meet MIL-STD-810
environmental conditions for Shock and Vibration, in addition to exposure to 95% humidity and up to 30,000 ft Altitude. An available Cable
Assembly with DC Socket connector is available (PE15J000) as an accessory specific to this model. See the illustration below.
