The ADPA1113 from Analog Devices is a GaN Power Amplifier that operates from 2 to 6 GHz. It delivers an output power of 40 W (46 dBm) with a small signal gain of 40.5 dB and a power-added efficiency (PAE) of 39%. This amplifier is based on GaN technology and is ideal for continuous wave applications, such as military jammers and radars. It does not require external matching or AC coupling to achieve full-band operation and no external inductor is required to bias the amplifier. This power amplifier requires a DC supply of 28 V and consumes a quiescent current of 750 mA. The amplifier is available in a 14-lead LDCC package that measures 9.8 x 8.2 mm.
