What is Flatness?
2026-01-22
In RF power amplifier datasheets, you may often see specifications such as ±0.5 dB or ±1 dB.
Flatness is a key performance metric showing how consistently an amplifier maintains output power or gain across its frequency range, reflecting the product’s overall design quality and engineering. Lower flatness variation (e.g. ±0.5 dB) means more predictable behavior, especially in EMC, radar, and broadband test applications.
The illustration below helps you quickly understand what flatness really means.
