en.Wedoany.com Reported - Narda-MITEQ has unveiled several new products and feature enhancements at IMS2026, expanding its high-performance RF and microwave solution portfolio with a focus on space and cryogenic applications.

In the Space Low Noise Amplifier (SLNA) segment, the company introduced the SLNA series, a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solution designed for missions ranging from low Earth orbit to deep space. Covering a frequency range of 100 MHz to 40 GHz (VHF to Ka-band), the series offers gain options of 30 dB, 40 dB, or 50 dB, with screening levels from NASA EEE-INST-002 Level 3 to MIL-PRF-38534 Class K. The SLNA features a sealed Kovar housing, withstands radiation doses up to 200 krad, and uses flight-proven materials and processes, aiming to reduce mission risk while saving cost and lead time.

In the Cryogenic Low Noise Amplifier (CLNA) domain, Narda-MITEQ has expanded its cryogenic LNA product line with a new high-performance CLNA series specifically designed and qualified for operation at sub-cryogenic temperatures as low as 4K. These products are primarily targeted at radiometers for radio astronomy and quantum computing applications. The performance improvement is attributed to the use of advanced semiconductor transistors and the company's experience in designing and manufacturing electronic components for cryogenic and sub-cryogenic temperatures.

The Broadband Ultra-Low Noise Amplifier (ULNA) series provides wideband coverage from VHF to Ka-band (0.1 to 40 GHz). This series employs InP-based HEMT technology, achieving a noise figure (NF) reduction of up to 0.5 dB in the 2 to 18 GHz band compared to standard LNA series. The ULNA series offers gain levels from 25 to 40 dB and linear power levels from 5 to 15 dBm, in a standard LNA form factor with optional aluminum or Kovar materials and hermetic packaging. The company leveraged its expertise in designing and manufacturing low noise amplifiers for high-frequency, challenging, and harsh environments to develop this series.
