SBL-2733533530-28KF-E1

Advanced

Description:
Model SBL-2733533530-28KF-E1 is a low noise amplifier with atypical small signal gain of 35 dB and a nominal noise figure of 3dB across the frequency range of 27 to 35 GHz. The DC power
requirement for the amplifier is +8 VDC/135 mA. The mechanicalconfiguration is an inline structure with a WR-28 Uni-Guide™
waveguide as its input port and K(F) connector as its output
port. Other port configurations, such as K connectors and WR28 waveguides for either the input or output port, are also available under different model numbers.

All data presented is collected from a sample lot. Actual data may vary unit to unit.
All testing was performed under +25 ˚C case temperature.
The amplifier employs SAGE Millimeter’s trademarked and patent pending technology, UniGuideTM, as its waveguide interfaces. The orientation of the input and the output waveguides
can be specified through corresponding model numbers. For example, the model number for ahorizontal output waveguide configuration would be SBL-2733533530-28HKF-E1 instead of thedefault SBL-2733533530-28KF-E1 which indicates vertical orientation output.
Other mechanical configurations are available under different model numbers.
SAGE Millimeter, Inc. reserves the right to change the information presented without notice.

Caution:•••••Exceeding absolute maximum ratings shown will damage the device.
The device is static sensitive. Always follow ESD rules when working with the device.
The case temperature of the device shall never exceed +50 ˚C. Use proper heatsink or fan ifnecessary.
Any foreign objects in the waveguide will cause performance degradation and may damage thedevice.
Proper torque, 8.0 ± 0.15 inch-pounds (0.90 ± 0.02 Nm), should be applied. SAGE Millimeter
torque wrench, model SCH-08008-S1, is highly recommended.
