The NW-PA-15D05A from NuWaves is a GaN solid-state power amplifier that operates from 800 MHz to 2500 MHz. It delivers more than 20 watts of RF power with an efficiency of 25% to extend the operational range of data links and transmitters. The PA provides a gain of up to 61 dB and near-constant envelope waveforms. It requires a supply voltage of 27 to 30 V DC and consumes up to 3.6 A of current. The module measures 6.5 x 4.5 x 1.0 inches with SMA female connectors and is ideal for RF communication systems, RF telemetry, software defined radios and unmanned aircraft systems applications. The power amplifier has over-voltage protection and can operate over a wide temperature range of -40 C to +85 C (baseplate).
