RFHA1000 50MHz TO 1000MHz, 15W GaN Wideband Power Amplifier

RFMD’s RFHA1000 GaN Power IC (PIC) is a wideband power amplifier designed for continuous wave and pulsed applications such as military communications, electronic warfare, wireless infrastructure, radar, two-way radios and general purpose amplification. Using an advanced high power density Gallium Nitride (GaN) semiconductor process, this high-performance amplifier achieves high efficiency, flat gain and power over a large instantaneous bandwidth in a single amplifier design. This GaN discrete amplifier is 50Ω input-matched, and packaged in a small form factor 5x6mm SOIC-8 outline air cavity ceramic package that provides excellent thermal stability through the use of advanced heat sink and power dissipation technologies. Ease of integration is accomplished through the incorporation of an optimized input matching network within the package that provides wideband gain and power performance in a single amplifier. An external output match offers the flexibility of further optimizing power and efficiency for any sub-band within the overall bandwidth.

Features

  • Advanced GaN HEMT and Heat Sink Technology
  • Input Internally Matched to 50Ω
  • 28V Operation, Output Power of 15W
  • 50MHz to 1000MHz Instantaneous Bandwidth

Want early design analysis without simulation?

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Traditional verification methods are failing today's complex IC designs, which require a proactive, early-stage analysis approach. A shift-left methodology addresses IP block integration challenges and the limitations of traditional simulation and ERC tools. Insight Analyzer detects hard-to-find leakage issues across power domains, enabling early analysis without full simulation. Identify inefficiencies earlier to reduce rework, improve reliability, and enhance power performance.
