Custom MMIC introduces 28 to 32GHz GaN PA

Device features greater than 20dB of gain across frequency range

Custom MMIC has announced the addition of the CMD217, a new 28 to 32 GHz GaN power amplifier in die form, to its growing product line.

The CMD217 features greater than 20 dB of gain across its operating frequency range, with a corresponding output 1 dB compression point of +36.7 dBm and saturated output power of +39.3 dBm (8.5 W). Power added efficiency for the CMD217 is 28 percent to 35 percent across the band.

 The CMD217 is a fully matched 50 Ω design and only requires external bypass capacitors to complete the bias circuitry. The die is passivated for increased reliability and moisture protection. Ideal applications for the CMD217 include Ka-band communication systems, where high power and high linearity are required.
