2400 MHz Filtered Driver Amplifier Kits<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This kit has been designed by David Bowman G0MRF<\/a><\/strong> and contains all the parts required to drive a PA on 2.4 GHz for QO-100. The completed board will have a gain of about 25 \u2013 26 dB and for best linearity, should be kept to 200 mW output.<\/p>\n

This kit can be assembled in a couple of hours by constructors with a medium level of experience. In addition to the kit you will need a 2.5mm drill for the mounting holes in the heatsink. You will also need a pair of SMD tweezers, a soldering iron with a fine tip and some small diameter solder e.g. 0.4 or 0.5mm. Finally, a headband magnifier or similar will help considerably with the SMD parts.<\/p>\n

David suggests running the board from 12 or 12.6 volts. At 13.8 volts the supply current and power dissipation increase without any significant improvement in performance<\/p>\n
