CMD244
DC - 24 GHz (L, S, C, X, Ku, K Band) Distributed Driver Amplifier MMIC
Qorvo's CMD244 is wideband GaAs MMIC distributed amplifier die which operates from DC to 24 GHz. The amplifier delivers 18 dB of gain with a corresponding output of 1 dB compression point of +25 dBm and noise figure of 2.5 dB at 10 GHz. The CMD244 is a 50 ohm matched design which eliminates the need for RF port matching. The CMD244 distributed amplifier also offers full passivation for increased reliability and moisture protection. This amplifier is the perfect alternative to higher cost hybrid devices.
