Source: Northrop Grumman Microelectronic Products & Services

This two-stage, 8 Watt GaN HEMT power amplifier covers the 27 to 31 GHz frequency range. It has a linear gain of 20 dB, 39 dBm (typ) power saturation, and 28 VDC DC power at 720 mA. It’s well suited for applications involving point-to-point/multipoint radios, and in SATCOM terminals.

The APN180FP Flange Mount GaN Power Amplifier comes in a leaded ceramic flanged package. It’s easy to handle and assemble through traditional soldering and avoids bare die handling, attachment, and ribbon bonding.
