QPA2628D 25 31 GHz GaAs Low Noise Amplifier Product Overview Qorvos QPA2628D is a high-performance, low noise amplifier fabricated on Qorvos production 90nm pHEMT (QPHT09) process. Covering 2531 GHz, the QPA2628D provides 22 dB small signal gain and P1dB of 19 dBm, while supporting a noise figure of 1.7 dB and IM3 levels of 53 dBc (at Pout=0 dBm/tone). The QPA2628D is in die form, 2.40 x 1.00 x 0.10 mm, with both RF ports matched to 50 ohms and with integrated DC blocking caps on both I/O ports for simple system integration. The QPA2628Ds high performance and low power consumption make it ideal for satellite and military or commercial radar applications.
