PRODUCT LINE OVERVIEW
NuWaves’ HILNA family of amplifiers is designed to achieve high RF gain while maintaining extremely
low noise, and high third‐order intercept point across a wide band. HILNA’s robust power supply also
operates over a very broad range easily allowing the unit to be integrated into systems without regard
to power supply precision.
