TGA2238
8 - 11 GHz, 60 Watt GaN Power Amplifier
Qorvo's TGA2238 is a high power MMIC amplifier fabricated on Qorvo's production 0.25um GaN on SiC process. The TGA2238 operates from 8 - 11 GHz and provides a superior combination of power, gain and efficiency by achieving more than 60W of saturated output power with 25dB of large signal gain and more than 42% power-added efficiency.
This superior performance provides system designers the flexibility to improve system performance while reducing size and cost.
The TGA2238 is matched to 50 ohm with integrated DC blocking capacitors on RF ports simplifying system integration. It is ideally suited for military and commercial x-band radar systems.
Lead-free and RoHS compliant.
Evaluation boards are available upon request.
