SHF T851 A
← Back to the Amplifier Overview
The SHF T851 A is a single-ended linear RF broadband amplifier. With a 3 dB bandwidth from < 100 kHz to > 100 GHz it is ideally suited for PAM4 signals even beyond 200 Gbps (100 GBaud).
The SHF T851 A is the group delay optimized version of the SHF T850 C. In this new design we managed to improve group delay behavior and thus increase the signal quality while roughly keeping the basic parameters such as gain, bandwidth and output power.

1.)
For the guaranteed values, please be referred to the data sheet.
2.)
These measurements have been performed with the courtesy and with the measurement equipment of Keysight Technologies Japan K.K. Therefore, they are typical and purely informative. SHF can only verify and confirm the data shown in the official data sheet.
The SHF T851 A amplifier has been fed with a signal from a Keysight M8199B 256GSa/s AWG (SSPRQ Pattern). A Keysight DCA N1000A with Precision-Timebase & 122 GHz Sampling Module (N1046A) took the waveforms after an “in-system” calibration of AWG and Scope.
