TBHDR1

High Dynamic Range Amplifier

The Tekbox TBHDR1 is a high dynamic range RF amplifier designed as a low-noise, high-IP3 pre-amplifier for RF test equipment. It boosts weak signals from spectrum analyzers, receivers, or active loop antennas, making it ideal for EMC pre-compliance testing and general RF measurement applications.

Features

Key capabilities and advantages

  • High dynamic range RF amplifier for enhanced signal reception.
  • Excellent low noise figure for reducing measurement uncertainty.
  • High IP3 performance for better linearity and distortion reduction.
  • Boosts signals down into the kHz frequency range.
  • Ideal as a pre-amplifier for spectrum analyzers and receivers in EMC test setups.
  • Also suited for use as an active loop antenna amplifier and general gain block.
  • Compact and USB-powered (5 V via Mini-USB-B).
