TGA2963-CP
6 - 18 GHz, 20 Watt GaN Power Amplifier
Qorvo's TGA2963-CP is a broadband high power MMIC amplifier fabricated on Qorvo's production 0.15um GaN on SiC process (QGaN15). The TGA2963-CP operates from 6 – 18 GHz and typically provides 20 W saturated output power with power-added efficiency of 20% and large-signal gain of 18 dB. This combination of wideband performance provides the flexibility designers are looking for to improve system performance while reducing size and cost.
The TGA2963-CP is offered in a 10-lead 15 x 15 mm bolt-down package. Assembled with a pure-copper base, coupled with its high efficiency, the TGA2963-CP minimizes the strain on the system-level cooling requirements, further reducing system operating costs. The broadband performance makes it ideally suited to support test instrumentation and electronic warfare, as well as, supporting multiple radar and communication bands.
Both RF ports have integrated DC blocking capacitors and are fully matched to 50 Ohms.
Lead free and RoHS compliant. Evaluation Boards are available upon request.
