Description

M/A-COM’s AM-143 is a coupler feedback amplifier

with low noise figure and high intercept points for the

low bias current. The use of coupler feedback

minimizes noise figure and current in a high intercept

amplifier. This amplifier is packaged in a TO-8

package. The ground plane on the PC board should

be configured to remove heat from under the

package. AM-143 are ideally suited for use where a

low noise, high reliability amplifier is required.
