what is your reason for a chain of amps? I can find plenty of single RF amps with 25, 30, 35, and even 40db gain that extend into ghz range. the advantages that I see are (1) I could possibly combine two with very low noise figures to have the same gain but lower noise figure when compared to...
Waht said: "Did you consider mixing down the signal and then amplifying it?"
yeah, mixing it down would probably be the easiest way to do it. however, the point of the project is to teach myself how to undersample high frequency as close to the antenna as I can get. therefore, it is more of a...
sorry if I didn't give all the specifications. I was looking for sort of a general answer, for the sake of those who would reply. I don't want to make people have to crunch a bunch of numbers just to answer the question.
however, if it helps, we are talking 1090mhz, with a desired...
