Richardson RFPD Inc. announces that it is taking advance orders and offering full design support capabilities for a new family of 48 V gallium nitride-on-silicon (GaN-on-Si) RF power transistors from Nitronex.
The new high-electron-mobility transistors (HEMTs) operate up to 4000 MHz, are designed for continuous wave (CW), pulsed, and linear operation, and they include plastic and ceramic package options. The new devices offer high gain, power and efficiency, as well as decreased thermal resistance. They are versatile for a range of applications, including aerospace and defense, broadband radio, land mobile radio (LMR), avionics and radar, wireless infrastructure, ISM, and broadcast transmission.
Key features of the new 48V GaN-on-Si HEMTs include:
