MA 40 Measurement Amplifier

The MA40 is a versatile High-Speed Measurement Amplifier for data rates up to 40 Gb/s (OC768/STM256). Key features are:
  • single-ended and differential I/O operation,
  • adjustable input threshold,
  • adjustable input bias,
  • switchable offset cancellation,
  • adjustable output swing,
  • DC coupled operation,
  • single supply voltage.
MA40 boardThe MA40 has a fully symmetrical differential input buffer. This allows differential as well as single- ended drive and is optimized for 50? line termination.
