QPA4501

QPA4501

4.4 - 5.0 GHz, 3 Watt, 28 Volt GaN Power Amplifier Module (PAM)

The QPA4501 is an integrated 2-stage Power Amplifier Module designed for massive MIMO applications up to 3 W RMS at the device output.

The module is 50 ohm input and output and requires minimal external components.  The module is also compact and offers a much smaller footprint than traditional discrete component solutions.

The QPA4501 incorporates a Doherty final stage delivering high power added efficiency for the entire module up to 3 W average power.

RoHS compliant.

Evaluation boards are available upon request.
