Gallium nitride amplifiers offer considerably better performance than traditional GaAs, LDMOS and VDMOS devices.
This single chip module supports a datarate of 54Mbit/s and is capable of delivering linear power at 16dBm for 802.11g WLAN applications, and 19dBm for 802.11b devices.
It is also suitable for home RF designs.
Specified with a very low current consumption, this front end module is fully matched internally to a 50ohm output and input impedance, and features an integrated power detector.
Contained in a QFN16 package, measuring just 3 x 3mm, the device is based on GaAs P-HEMT MMIC technology, with an operating voltage from 2.9 to 4.5V and operating temperature range of -40 to +85C.
Available immediately from stock at Admiral Microwaves, these RoHS compliant devices cost from GBP 2 each, depending on volume ordered.
Sample kits containing five devices and an evaluation board are also available.
