RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for wideband, DC-3.5GHz GaN transistors from TriQuint. Available as the T2G4003532-FS earless package or the T2G4003532-FL, both transistors are input prematched for S-band operation. The devices are constructed with TriQuint’s proven TQGaN25 process, which features advanced field plate techniques to optimize power and efficiency at high drain bias operating conditions. This optimization can potentially lower system costs in terms of fewer amplifier line-ups and lower thermal management costs. Both the T2G4003532-FS and T2G4003532-FL operate at 32V and find applications in both Radar and communication systems.
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for the TGA2612 from TriQuint. Optimized for performance from 6-12GHz, the TGA2612 features >22dB small signal gain with 20dBm P1dB. Noise figure is <1.8dB while OIP3 is an industry leading 29dBm. Designed with TriQuint TQGaN25 GaN process technology, the TGA2612 finds applications in X-band radar as well as commercial and military communication systems where the ability to survive up to 2W of input power without performance degradation possibly eliminates the need for a power limiter. To simplify system integration, the TriQuint TGA2612 is fully matched to 50 ohms with integrated DC blocking caps…

RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for a 9W GaN HPA from TriQuint. The TGA2595 supports VSAT and SatCom applications from 27.5 to 31GHz. 24% power added efficiency highlights this multi-stage amplifier which draws 280mA from a 20V suppy. The TriQuint TGA2595 offers 39.5dBm mid-band saturated output power with small signal gain of 23dB. A balanced configuration supports low return loss and improves robustness into non ideal loads. Offered in a space saving 3.6×3.24×0.1mm DIE configuration, the TGA2595 is up to 3x smaller than competing products. To simplify system integration, the TriQuint TGA2595 is fully matched to 50 ohms…
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for Skyworks SMV2026 series of hyperabrupt tuning varactor diodes. The SMV2026-079LF is offered in the SC-79 package while a smaller, SOD-882 package if available for space constrained layouts. Low series resistance of 0.5 ohm at 5V typifies this Skyworks varactor series and enables low phase noise in wideband VCO designs. Wide tuning range/ratio provides very wide tuning in low voltage applications and key performance parameters enable the replacement of Japanese manufactured varactor diodes, at a third of the cost. Ideal for applications including low-noise and wideband UHF and VHF VCOs, voltage-controlled phase shifters…
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for three new TriQuint 100W power limiters for L, S and C-band RADAR. These MMIC GaAs VPIN limiters protect sensitive receivers from high power incident signals. Then do not require DC bias and have insertion loss <0.5dB.
