New additions to family of cost-effective radar and communications system solutions
Richardson RFPD Inc. announced the availability and full design support capabilities for two new GaN transistors from Qorvo.
The 5W TGF3020-SM and 30 W TGF3021-SM input-matched transistors enable high linear gain and power efficiency in low-cost, space-saving surface-mount plastic QFN packages. The integrated input matching network enables wideband gain and power performance, and the output can be matched on-board to optimize power and efficiency for any region within the band.
The new transistors are part of Qorvo’s family of cost-effective radar and communications system solutions. Key features include:
