AKON is a leading manufacturer of a broad range of microwave
components and integrated subassemblies in 0.5 to 20.0 GHz
range. We specialize in concept through hardware realization of “custom” microwave components and integrated
subassemblies (MIC and MMIC). The A20-MH166 is a 5-band RF amplifier and filter-preselector, which channelizes
the 1.0 to 18 GHz band into 5 sub-bands of 1.0 to 2.0, 2.0 to 6.0, 6.0 to 10.0, 10.0 to 14.0 and 14.0 to 18.0 GHz. There
are two inputs, one for the RF source and the other for a test signal input. the unit provides 35 dB of low noise gain.
There is additionally included a DC coupled SDLA with TSS of -75 dBm which provides high speed detected video
out. Applications include front-end preselection and video recovery for EW RWR and ELINT receivers. AKON can
customize this product to the individual customer’s specific requirements.
