Selecting the Right RF and Microwave Amplifiers
アプリケーションノート
Amplifiers may not be the irst component to consider when setting up a test and measurement system. However, ampliiers play a major role in many different measurements, raising test signals to required levels and helping to boost the accuracy of the results for RF and microwave analysis. Of course, ampliiers come in many shapes and sizes, from tiny surface-mount integrated-circuit (IC) ampliiers with low noise igure to larger high-power ampliiers that require heat sinks to maintain acceptable operating temperatures. The focus here will be on RF and microwave ampliiers that are well suited for use in test and measurement applications.
