These new Power Amplifiers (SSPA) from Quantic PMI offer broadband, high gain and low noise figure performance for use in pulsed airborne, naval, and ground radar applications, as well as found in weather forecasting Doppler radar systems and utilized in air traffic control and precision approach radar systems.
Space is always an issue when there is a need for broadband operation. Traditional High Power Amplifiers are generally narrow band requiring 2-3 devices plus other components to cover a frequency band such as 2 to 18 GHz. This adds additional insertion loss that reduces or limits the amount of gain and gain flatness that can be achieved. To overcome this, Quantic PMI has designed this line of High-Power Amplifiers that are broadband and provide a high gain and remarkably low noise figure across the entire band. This reduces costs by only requiring one device vs several devices to cover the same band.
