Qorvo's QPA2612 is a packaged, high performance power amplifier fabricated on Qorvo's production 0.15 um GaN on SiC process (QGaN15). Covering 8 - 12 GHz, the QPA2612 provides > 12 W of saturated output power and 23 dB of large-signal gain while achieving an impressive 40% power-added efficiency.
Packaged in a small 5 x 5 mm plastic overmold QFN, tight lattice spacing requirements for phased array radar applications is easily supported. RF input and output ports are matched to 50Ω and are DC grounded. QPA2612 is part of a three-amplifier family and is pin compatible to QPA2610 and QPA2611.
Lead-free and RoHS compliant.
