The QPM2637 is a GaN MMIC front-end module that operates from 9 to 10.5 GHz. The MMIC has a T/R switch, low-noise amplifier, and a power amplifier. The receive path has dual-outputs that provides a gain of 21 dB with a noise figure of 2.7 dB. The transmit path provides 4W of saturated power with 23dB large signal gain. The FEM can handle up to 4 W of input power into the ANT port eliminating the need for a limiter.
It is available in a 6 x 5 x 1.8 mm air-cavity EHS (embedded copper heat slug) surface mount package, coupled with a proprietary die-attach process and is ideal for X-Band radar applications.
