Space Low Noise Amplifiers (SLNA)
Narda-MITEQ develops high-performance, space-qualified low-noise amplifiers (SLNAs) engineered to amplify extremely weak RF and microwave signals while maintaining low noise figures and reliable electrical performance. From satellite receiver front ends and spaceborne communication payloads to specialized spacecraft electronics, Narda-MITEQ delivers reliable amplification technologies engineered to support the performance and operational requirements of demanding space missions.
Designed for demanding spaceflight applications, our SLNA product family offers frequency coverage from 100 MHz to 40 GHz, with multiple gain options of 30, 40, and 50 dB to address a wide range of receiver and signal-processing requirements. Featuring hermetically sealed Kovar housings, radiation tolerance up to 200 krad, and proven high-reliability materials and manufacturing processes, our amplifiers provide dependable signal amplification for missions ranging from Low Earth Orbit (LEO) to deep space.
Narda-MITEQ space low-noise amplifiers are designed for integration into mission-critical satellite, spacecraft, and aerospace applications supporting military and defense, satellite communications (SATCOM), space exploration, scientific research, and advanced communication systems. Available with screening levels ranging from NASA EEE-INST-002 Level 3 to MIL-PRF-38534 Class K, our commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) solutions leverage established spaceflight designs and extensive amplifier heritage to help reduce mission risk, development costs, and lead times.
