Preliminary
Product Description
SLM-20T
Sirenza Microdevices SLM-20T amplifier is a low noise
amplifier module operating in the 1700-2000 MHz frequency
band. This device has been optimized to serve high
linearity base station applications where a high intercept
point is required with low noise figure. The SLM-20T uses
PHEMT device technology and internal bias circuitry to yield
a high performance product with proven reliability. Internal
RF matching is also included on both the input and output to
provide an easy to implement, 50 Ohm circuit block. No
additional external components are required. Optimized
performance over narrower bands is available for custom
specified orders. Contact the sales team for information.
