General Description
TriQuint’s TGA2818-SM is a high-power, S-band
amplifier fabricated on TriQuint’s TQGaN25 0.25um
GaN on SiC production process. Covering 2.8-3.7
GHz, the TGA2818-SM provides greater than 45.5
dBm of saturated output power and greater than
18.0 dB of large-signal gain while achieving greater
than 47 % power added efficiency.
The TGA2818-SM can also support a variety of
operating conditions to best support system
requirements. With good thermal properties, it can
support a range of bias voltages and will perform
well under pulse applications. The TGA2818-SM is
matched to 50 ohms. It is ideal for use in both
commercial and military radar systems.
Lead-free and RoHS compliant.
Evaluation boards available on request.
