The model AMF-5F-18002200-17-10P is a low-noise amplifier (LNA) from MITEQ with maximum noise figure of 1.7 dB from 18 to 22 GHz. It provides 40 dB gain across its bandwidth, with worst-case gain flatness of +/-1.5 dB and typical gain flatness of +/-0.75 ...

The model AMF-5F-18002200-17-10P is a low-noise amplifier (LNA) from MITEQ with maximum noise figure of 1.7 dB from 18 to 22 GHz. It provides 40 dB gain across its bandwidth, with worst-case gain flatness of +/-1.5 dB and typical gain flatness of +/-0.75 dB. The amplifier, which is supplied in a housing that is only 16 mm long and 8 mm high with field-replaceable K connectors, delivers at least +10 dBm output power at 1-dB compression with typical third-order intercept of +20 dBm . The amplifier draws 180 mA maximum current from a single +15-VDC supply.
