ATCi uses our amplifiers to improve on their Satcom Systems. We are happy to have had the opportunity to provide ATCi with various High-Tech amplifiers for their integration projects. We received excellent compliments for helping them in a time of need and look forward to working with them in future projects.

Agilent Technologies is now using our Low Phase Noise amplifiers to improve their test systems performance. Agilent thought they had very good Phase Noise levels in their system but when we offered them our Low Phase Noise Amplifiers instead of what they had, their levels dropped significantly. Below are the actual test results from Agilent:

NASA gives the weather report with the aid of AmpliTech. NASA has a very sophisticated instrument to monitor the earth’s water cycle remotely. The Amplitech LNA’s were used to replace the existing ones in the front-end of the radiometer to improve system performance by increasing the gain and decreasing the system noise temperature.

Sage needs high gain to get the best results. We provided Sage with an IFM limiting amplifier that had a steady gain of 80dB typical over the full 2-18 GHz EW band. They needed a thin, lightweight package with a very flat response over 16GHz of bandwidth (2-18 GHz operational) and extremely low harmonics in saturation and dual tone harmonic suppression. Actual test data is shown below:

DirectTV gets a clear picture with AmpliTech amplifiers. Next generation satellites for DirecTV will contain space qualified amplifiers in order to receive the best signal, highest reliability, and provide the best clarity. The lightweight construction and the high performing specifications were the benefits that DirecTV needed to excel in their new fleet of satellites.

Lockheed Martin needs more power at low frequencies and finds it in AmpliTech. There are very few solutions for frequencies of 0.01 and 1 GHz. Lockheed Martin not only needed high output power (+23dBm) but ultra low noise figure (0.9 typ), and steady gain of 16dB. AmpliTech not only met their demands but also provided excellent VSWR, low power consumption in a very compact, rugged package.

BAE Systems has various advanced detect systems that require the best AmpliTech has to offer. Not only were we given difficult specifications like coverage up to 18 GHz, ultra low noise figures, +23dBm output power; and almost no gain variation…. but each amplifier had to be gain matched and phase matched with each other to provide BAE’s system with consistent results.

Next Generation Troposcatter Communication Systems use AmpliTech’s KU band LNA’s for better performance. Troposcatter Communication, or over-the-horizon communications, is the ability to transmit radio waves over the Earth by bouncing signals off irregularities (small changes in humidity, temperature and pressure) in the troposphere area. Our amplifiers with our low noise figure, steady response, and high gain provide a perfect, reliable communication every time.

Universities all over the world are using AmpliTech amplifiers for their experiments. Of special interest to many professors/students are our cryogenic amplifiers that provide the absolute lowest Noise Figure achievable. This is very important because the reproduction of a perfect signal is crucial to many experiments. Not only our cryogenic amplifiers, but all our custom amplifiers really make it easy for our academic customers to succeed at their experiments.

Agilent Technologies stays ahead of their competition by using AmpliTech Amplifiers. To improve on their low noise analyzers, Agilent is currently using our ultra-low noise amplifiers for their 0.1 - 20.0 GHz analyzers. The excellent performance of this amplifier will help Agilent to reach further levels of accuracy than previously encountered. These amplifiers are highly efficient with a very compact housing allowing easy integration into their system.

Yale University is currently working on the next generation RF systems. To achieve their objective, they have ordered our top-of-the-line amplifiers to comply with all their technical, mechanical, and other special needs.

ISRO takes AmpliTech Amplifiers to the Moon. Once again AmpliTech is an integral part of a major technological project. The project this time was India�s first historic mission to the Moon. Chandrayaan-1 � which means "Moon Craft" in ancient Sanskrit � launched from the Sriharikota space center in southern India. The main hub for the management and coordination of the mission was led by the Indian Space Research Organization.

There were various missions, but the main project, which AmpliTech was proud to be a contributor, involved using a 3,080-pound lunar probe (The Moon Impact Probe, MIP) to create a high-resolution map of the lunar surface and examine minerals below the Lunar surface. The Moon Impact Probe (MIP) developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), India's national space agency, was a lunar probe that was released by ISRO's Chandrayaan-1 lunar remote sensing orbiter. The Moon Impact Probe successfully separated from the moon-orbiting Chandrayaan-1 on November 14, 2008, 20:06 and descended towards the lunar south pole in a controlled manner. The MIP impacted Shackleton Crater, of the lunar south pole, at 20:31 on 14 November 2008 releasing subsurface debris that could be analyzed for presence of water ice.

AmpliTech was chosen to supply this and future amplifiers because of its� low noise figure, high isolation, operating capabilities over a wide range of temperatures, low voltage requirements, small size and weight, high reverse isolation, and its� incredible power to combat solder reflow problems.
