Wolfspeed’s CMPA601C025D is a gallium-nitride (GaN) high-electron-mobili
ty transistor (HEMT)-based monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) on a silicon carbide substrate, using a 0.25-μm gate-length fabrication process. GaN-on-SiC has superior properties compared to silicon, gallium arsenide or GaN-on-Si, including higher breakdown voltage, higher saturated electron d-rift velocity and higher thermal conductivity. GaN HEMTs also offer greater power density and wider bandwidths compared to Si, GaAs, and GaN-on-Si transistors. This MMIC contains a reactively matched amplifier design approach enabling very wide bandwidths to be achieved.
