Product Description
The RFHA1000 is a wideband Power Amplifier designed for CW and pulsed applica-
tions such as wireless infrastructure, RADAR, two way radios and general purpose
amplification. Using an advanced high power density Gallium Nitride (GaN) semi-
conductor process, these high-performance amplifiers achieve high efficiency, flat
gain, and large instantaneous bandwidth in a single amplifier design. The
RFHA1000 is an input matched GaN transistor packaged in an air cavity ceramic
package which provides excellent thermal stability through the use of advanced
heat sink and power dissipation technologies. Ease of integration is accomplished
through the incorporation of optimized input matching network within the package
that provides wideband gain and power performance in a single amplifier. An exter-
nal output match offers the flexibility of further optimizing power and efficiency for
any sub-band within the overall bandwidth.
