25 W; 2.5 - 6.0 GHz; GaN MMIC Power Amplifier

The CMPA2560025 is a gallium-nitride (GaN) HEMT-based monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC). GaN has superior properties compared to silicon or gallium arsenide; including higher breakdown voltage; higher saturated electron drift velocity and higher thermal conductivity. GaN HEMTs also offer greater power density and wider bandwidths compared to Si and GaAs transistors. This MMIC contains a two-stage reactively matched amplifier; enabling very wide bandwidths to be achieved in a small footprint. Available in die and a screw-down package featuring a copper tungsten heat sink.
