Com-Power PAM-103 Preamplifier 1 MHz – 1000 MHz
Description
Com-Power PAM-103 Preamplifier 1 MHz – 1000 MHz is intended for improving measurement system sensitivity during EMC compliance testing. With a 33 dB gain it amplifies the signals that were previously hidden below the noise floor of the EMI receiver can now be seen and measured. The PAM-103 has a gain variation of ±3 dB for the entire frequency range to reduce measurement errors. It can be powered by the rechargeable NimH batteries included when an external power source is not available.
Features
- Wide Frequency Range: 1 MHz to 1 GHz
- Internal Battery or AC Adapter Operation: Operates 13+ hours per charge
- High Gain, Low Noise Figure: 33 dB Gain / 3.3 dB Noise Figure
