Description
M/A-COM’s MA05836 is a 500mW miniature, phaselocked, FM transmitter module. The MA05836 is ideally
suited for rugged telemetry systems.
The MA05836 contains a shock hardened crystal oscillator, a silicon on sapphire phase-locked loop, and an
iHBTTM VCO and power amplifier, with supply line bypassing. The module requires only a single, positive
regulated +3.0VDC to +3.3VDC power supply. The
MA05836 has a fully matched (50W) output network.

M/A-COM's MA05836 is fabricated on standard FR-4
PC board material, employing automatic assembly of the
hybrid technology components (silicon on sapphire,
iHBTTM, and SMT). When fully encapsulated, this module will easily survive high shock pulses greater than
30,000G. This product is 100% RF tested to ensure compliance to performance specifications.
