RF Amplifiers
Analog Devices RF amplifiers are designed using the company’s leading amplifier and RF IC expertise that meet the challenge of your next design. Our RF Amplifiers range from Low Noise Amplifiers (LNAs) to high power amplifiers including GaN technology spanning from kHz to ~100GHz. There are a variety of products optimized for bandwidth, efficiency, power, linearity, low noise, low phase noise, etc. to meet the most challenging performance requirements. These RF amplifiers are often used in Communications, Instrumentation, Space, and Defense applications but also enjoy a broad range of end markets.
