Ampleon launches L Band, GaN-SiC HEMT

High output power, high efficiency GaN-SiC HEMT transistor is designed for long pulse radars
At European Microwave Week (held in Milan between 27 through to 29 September), Ampleon will show the new CLL3H0914L-700 GaN-SiC HEMT.
This rugged GaN transistor is optimised for radar implementations where long pulse width and high-duty cycles are required. The transistor was engineered to achieve over 700W of peak output power from a single transistor while operating at a voltage of 50V with industry-leading efficiency of over 70 percent as well as designed thermally for long pulse applications, such as pulse widths (~2 milliseconds) and 20% duty cycles.
These L Band GaN HEMT superior performance capabilities are demonstrated in a variety of application reference designs shown at the booth - including ones for defence/aerospace bands (960-1250MHz and 1030-1090MHz), plus an L band ground base radar (1200-1400MHz).
This high-power density and low-thermal resistance HEMT is now in full volume production. Units are available directly from Ampleon or authorised distribution partners, RFMW and Digi-Key.
Secure Your Hydrogen Supply
A study supply of high-purity hydrogen is critical to semiconductor fabrication. Supply chain interruptions are challenging manufacturers, leading to production slowdowns and stoppages. On-site hydrogen generation offers a scalable alternative for new and existing fabs, freeing the operator from dependence on delivered gas.Plant managers understand the critical role that hydrogen plays in semiconductor fabrication. That important job includes crystal growth, carrier gas, wafer annealing, and in the emerging Extreme UV Lithography (EUV) that will enable new generations of devices. As the vast need for semiconductors grows across all sectors of world economies, so does the need for high-purity hydrogen.
