Spectrum Microwave offers a line of low noise

frequency multipliers based on multiple passive doubler/

amplifier combinations. These custom designed assemblies

cover input frequency ranges of 5 to 500 MHz with output

frequencies in the range of 100 to 1000 MHz. Narrowband

or broadband devices are available. Additive phase noise

testing ensures low phase noise/jitter performance. All

internal amplifiers and doublers are contained in rugged

TO-8 hermetic packages for excellent performance over

military environmental conditions.
