Description

M/A-COM’s AM-123 is a coupler feedback amplifier

with high intercept and compression points. The use

of coupler feedback minimizes noise figure and cur-

rent in a high intercept amplifier. This amplifier is

packaged in a TO-8 package. Due to the internal

power dissipation the thermal rise minimized. The

ground plane on the PC board should be configured

to remove heat from under the package AM-123 is

ideally suited for use where a high intercept, high

reliability amplifier is required.
