RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for a Ka-band amplifier with 1 W output power. Qorvo’s TGA4544-SM supports 28 GHz, point-to-point radio and Ka-band linear satellite communication systems in the 26 to 31 GHz frequency range. Available in a 5 x 5 mm QFN package, the TGA4544-SM has 23 dB of gain, a P1dB of 31 dBm and Psat of 32 dBm. OIP3 is rated at 41 dBm. Qorvo has designed this PA for ease-of-use so no matching components are required. 
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for XSYSTOR controller modules used for operation and protection of depletion mode transistors. Primarily designed for GaN devices, controllers like the 200X02R0 protect GaN transistors during the power On/Off sequence of internal and external voltage supplies. The 200X02R0 is an inverting controller. TTL enable for both gate and drain switching are independent or made sequential for stability purposes.
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for Qorvo’s TGF2965-SM, 50 ohm, input-matched transistor. The TGF2965-SM offers 5 W of output power from 30 to 3000 MHz. Qorvo’s TGF2965-SM can be tuned for either power or efficiency and performance of both is exceptional. Typical PAE at 2 GHz is 63%. Linear gain is measured at 18 dB. Operating from a 32 V supply, this transistor is capable of both CW and pulsed performance.
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for a LowDrift™ BAW filter created for Band 25 repeater uplink applications centered at 1882.5 MHz. Qorvo’s 885048 has 65 MHz of usable bandwidth and can handle up to 1 W of RF input power. Featuring a low insertion loss of 2.3 dB max, the Qorvo 885048 offers single-input, single-output operation. No external matching components are required which simplifies circuit design.
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for the PE42422 UltraCMOS SPDT RF switch from Peregrine Semiconductor. The enhanced frequency range of the PE42422 pushes down to 5 MHz providing broadband performance from 5 to 6000 MHz. Typical insertion loss of 0.25 dB at 1000 MHz with 44 dB isolation is maintained.
