Ka Band High Power Amplifier

The TriQuint TGA1073B-SCC is a three stage HPA MMIC design using TriQuint's proven 0.25 um Power pHEMT process. The TGA1073B-SCC is designed to support a variety of millimeter wave applications including point-to-point digital radio and LMDS/LMCS and Ka band satellite ground terminals.

The three stage design consists of a 2 x 300 um input stage driving a 2 x 600 um interstage followed by a 4 x 600 um output stage. The TGA1073B-SCC provides 28.5 dBm nominal output power at 1dB compression across 27 - 32 GHz. Typical small signal gain is 25 dB at 28 GHz and 18 dB at 32 GHz.

The TGA1073B-SCC requires minimum off-chip components. Each device is 100% DC and RF tested on-wafer to ensure performance compliance. The device is available in chip form.
