At the IEEE International Microwave Symposium (IMS 2020) virtual event (4–6 August), MACOM Technology Solutions Inc of Lowell, MA, USA (which makes semiconductors, components and subassemblies for analog RF, microwave, millimeter-wave and photonic applications) has launched two new gallium arsenide (GaAs)-based wideband MMIC power amplifiers, for use as driver or power amplifiers in microwave communications, test & measurement, aerospace & defense and multi-market applications.
The MAAM-011277-DIE is a wideband 0.25W power amplifier that has 22dB of linear gain and 25dBm P3dB (saturated output power at 3dB gain compression) with 17% power-added efficiency (PAE) while biased at 5V. The product is suitable for use as a driver amplifier for applications in the 20-45GHz range.
The MAAM-011291-DIE is a wideband 1W power amplifier monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) die with 19dB of linear gain, 30dBm P3dB and 15% PAE while biased at 5V. This product can be used as a driver or power amplifier in applications spanning 20-45GHz.
