Amplifiers expand comms instrumentation

With 30 years specialist RF design and manufacturing experience, US-based B and Z Technologies has introduced a new line of high performance, yet competitively priced, RF microwave and millimetre-wave amplifiers. With an ultrawide bandwidth, low noise figures and unconditional stability, the amplifiers require no compromise on performance or reliability.

Top of the range amplifiers offer a bandwidth from 100MHz to 40GHz and maximum noise figures from 0.7 to 4dB.

All B and Z microwave and millimetre-wave amplifiers fit into a single common housing, giving design engineers the flexibility to upgrade their systems easily.

The family is comprehensive, and includes medium power and high dynamic range versions, as well as wideband and ultrawideband models.

The GDS 2000 series of digital storage oscilloscopes, just launched by GW Instek, is destined to become the new benchmark for mid-range, general-purpose DSOs

Additional features include cryogenic operation, excellent group delay, and all models have built in DC regulators.

The amplifiers have been designed to be RoHS compliant where commercial applications require this.

The B and Z Technologies top range amplifiers complement Aspen's existing line up of RF, microwave and millimetre-wave offerings, and are ideal for defence, avionics, satellite communications and instrumentation applications.

Aspen's technical and commercial expertise ensures customers can find the best technical solution to meet project constraints.

Models are already in stock, and samples can be supplied in 2 to 3 weeks, with production quantities available in 3 to 4 weeks.

Prices are highly competitive, and range from GBP 250 to GBP 700 depending on the model and volume ordered.
