ADI launches wideband GaN amplifier
MMIC amplifier offers high gain, power and efficiency in compact design
Analog Devices has introduced a wideband GaN MMIC power amplifier that is said to offer best-in-class performance within a compact design.
Covering the 300 MHz to 6 GHz spectrum, the HMC8205 has been designed for applications such as wireless infrastructure, radar, public mobile radio, and general-purpose amplification test equipment that require pulse or continuous wave (CW) support.
The HMC8205 combines DC feed/RF bias choke, DC blocking capacitors and driver stage on a single design, while delivering 35 Watts with up to 44 percent power added efficiency (PAE) across an instantaneous bandwidth.
The HMC8205 also operates both pulse and continuous wave.
