QPA1008

2.7 - 3.8 GHz Variable Gain Driver Amplifier

Qorvo's QPA1008 is an S-band two stage variable gain driver amplifier in a 5x5 mm QFN. The QPA1008 operates from 2.7 to 3.8 GHz and provides 31dBm of P1dB output power with 26 dB of large signal gain and greater than 30% PAE.  The QPA1008 includes a 30 dB attenuator at the input, and a simple resistively coupled (~-20 dB coupling) power sampler detector at the output. The amplifier has a fast bias control switch for quick turn on and off operation.

Lead-free and RoHS compliant.  Evaluation Boards are available upon request.
