QPA2308D 56 GHz 60 Watt GaN Power Amplifier Product Overview Qorvos QPA2308D is a MMIC power amplifier fabricated on Qorvos production 0.25 um GaN on SiC process (QgaN25). Operating from 5.06.0 GHz, the QPA2308D produces greater than 60 W of saturated output power and greater than 21 dB of large-signal gain while achieving greater than 43% power-added efficiency. Both RF ports are fully matched to 50 ohms with integrated DC blocking capacitors thereby simplifying system integration. The QPA2308D s performance makes it well suited for both commercial and military applications. Key Features Lead-free and RoHS compliant. Frequency Range: 5.06.0 GHz P (P =26 dBm): 47.8 dBm SAT IN PAE (P =26 dBm): 43 % IN Power Gain (PIN=26 dBm): 21 dB Small Signal Gain: 31 dB Bias (pulsed): VD = 28 V, IDQ = 1200 mA Die Dimensions: 4.272 x 5.070 x 0.10 mm Performance is typical across frequency.
