HIGH PERFORMANCE DISTRIBUTION AMPLIFIER
HPDA-5i
DESCRIPTION
The HPDA-5i is an improved version of the High Performance Distribution and Isolation Amplifier with
performance exceeding that required to distribute state-of-the-art atomic frequency standards. This new model
offers the same exceptional low phase noise with a larger frequency bandwidth, greater isolation and improved
stability. The inputs and outputs have a low VSWR to minimize environmental effects on frequency distribution
through long transmission lines.
The Amplifier may be ordered in a Nuclear Instrumentation Bin Module or a Vector CMA Series enclosure
compatible with the National Institute of Technology enclosure. The power supply requirements for the NIM
module are +15 VDC, 0.25 Amperes. For the Vector CMA enclosure you may select the voltage operation of your
choice between +18VDC to +28 VDC, 0.3 A per module.
APPLICATIONS
