TGA2963-CP
6 – 18 GHz 20 W GaN Power Amplifier
Product Description
Qorvo’s TGA2963-CP is a broadband high power MMIC
amplifier fabricated on Qorvo’s production 0.15um GaN on
SiC process (QGaN15). The TGA2963-CP operates from
6 – 18 GHz and typically provides 20 W saturated output
power with power-added efficiency of 20% and large-signal
gain of 18 dB. This combination of wideband performance
provides the flexibility designers are looking for to improve
system performance while reducing size and cost.
The TGA2963-CP is offered in a 10-lead 15 x 15 mm bolt-
down package. Assembled with a pure-copper base,
coupled with its high efficiency, the TGA2963-CP minimizes
the strain on the system-level cooling requirements, further
reducing system operating costs. The broadband
performance makes it ideally suited to support test
instrumentation and electronic warfare, as well as,
supporting multiple radar and communication bands.
Both RF ports have integrated DC blocking capacitors and
are fully matched to 50 Ohms.
RoHS compliant.
