SMAL7

AL7 / SMAL7 Cascadable Amplifier 50 to 500 MHz Rev. V4 Features Product Image  SYMMETRICAL CLIPPING: GOOD EVEN-ORDER SUPPRESSION  HIGH GAIN: 13 dB (TYP.)  LOW VSWR: < 1.5:1 (TYP.)  FAST PULSE RECOVERY TIME: < 50 NSEC (TYP.) Description The AL7 limiting amplifier is a discrete hybrid design, which uses thin film manufacturing processes for accurate performance and high reliability. This design uses a Schottky diode limiter circuit at the output, and a single stage bipolar transistor feedback amplifier at the output. An RF choke is used for DC power supply decoupling . Both TO-8 and Surface Mount packages are hermetically sealed, and MIL-STD-883 environmental screening is available.
