RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for a pair of GaN low noise amplifiers targeted at military and commercial radar applications as well as SatCom, point-to-point radio and WiMax applications. The TriQuint TGA2611-SM covers 2 to 6GHz while the TGA2612-SM stretches from 6 to 12GHz. Both LNAs operate from a 10V bias drawing 100mA of current and both the TGA2611-SM and TGA2612-SM come in 4x4mm, plastic overmold QFN packages.
The TGA2611-SM (2 to 6 GHz) offers 1dB noise figure with small signal gain of > 22dB. Third order intercept (OTOI) is 30 dBm. TriQuint’s TGA2612-SM (6 to12 GHz) is specified at 2 dB noise figure with 22 dB of gain. Additional information for these devices is available on the RFMW website.
