Comtech PST’s model BM1829-10 is a Class AB linear power amplifier that operates over the full 100 to 2000 MHz frequency range, providing a minimum of 10 Watts over temperature and load VSWR variations. The amplifier is very compact (4.0” x 2.5” x 1.35”) and weighs less than 1 pound. Operates between 20-36 VDC for applications in mounted, dismounted and airborne Systems.

While RF gain is rated at 47 dB + 3.0 dB, RF input overdrive is given at +10 dBm. And maximum input VSWR is 2:1. Adiitionally, it offers harmonic rejection of -15 dBc and spurious signals are -60 dBc. PA enable is <10 µs and load VSWR is infinite.

Conduction cooled, model BM1829-10 meets military shock (MIL-STD-810F Method 516.5) and vibration (MIL-STD-810F Method 514.5) specs.
