Ad603sq

I have researched the AD603SQ (specifically the military-grade AD603SQ-883B) variable gain amplifier IC. While direct wholesale listings for this specific military part number are rare on consumer B2B platforms, I have identified relevant distributors and market insights.

Product Identification & Technical Specs

The AD603SQ-883B is a high-performance, low-noise variable gain amplifier (VGA) from Analog Devices Mouser.

• Key Specs: 90 MHz bandwidth, 31.3 dB voltage gain, and a CDIP-8 package Mouser.
• RoHS Status: Non-Compliant (Standard for many military-grade/883B components) Mouser.
• Datasheet: Available via Mouser's technical library Mouser.

Sourcing & Price Benchmarks

Direct listings for the "SQ" (Military) grade are limited. Most suppliers on Alibaba offer the commercial AD603AR or AD603AQ variants, or modules built around the AD603 IC.

• Price Range: AD603 modules on Alibaba range from $19.00 to $28.80 AlibabaAlibaba. Individual ICs in commercial grade (like AD8331) are significantly cheaper (~$0.10) Alibaba.
• MOQ: Typically 1–5 units for modules and 10+ units for bulk ICs AlibabaAlibaba.
• Availability: Most verified electronics distributors in Shenzhen carry the AD603 series but require a direct quote for the military-grade SQ version AlibabaAlibaba.
