MACOM to Develop a High-Power RF GaN Transmitter Using Beamforming Technology for the Dept. of Defense

MACOM Technology Solutions Inc. (“MACOM”), a leading supplier of RF and Microwave solutions, has been awarded a contract from the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to develop a high-power transmitter.

The contract requires MACOM to develop a 45-Kilowatt Radio Frequency (RF) transmitter using novel Gallium Nitride (GaN) semiconductor and antenna beamforming technology. MACOM’s solution is based on its proprietary best-in-class MACOM PURE CARBIDE GaN components and power combining expertise.

“This award further validates that our semiconductor technology and engineering expertise is suitable for very high-power DoD programs,” said Stephen G. Daly, MACOM’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “We look forward to supporting this and other similar programs with our technology.”
