The Low Phase Noise Amplifier Specialists

Unlike our competitors, we provide both typical and guaranteed phase noise data on our Low Phase Noise series PM amplifiers. This assures our customers that the low phase noise amplifier they purchase is guaranteed to perform as indicated by the design's datasheet. Low Phase Noise performance is a hallmark of Spectrum Microwave PM Amplifiers.

Ultra Low Phase Noise Performance

Better phase noise is a performance requirement often sought in today's most advanced systems. Spectrum Microwave achieves guaranteed ultra low phase noise performance in its line of Series PM Amplifiers using a combination of design techniques, material selection, and in-house testing.

Integral to finding solutions to frequency control problems is the ability to test for compliance. In order to successfully test these complex designs, we have invested heavily in high performance test equipment including Agilent PNA network analyzers with calibrated performance to 50 GHz, low phase noise signal generators, an Agilent ES5500 phase noise measurement system, and additional in-house environmental test equipment.
