Description
Cree’s CMPA901A020S is a packaged, 20W HPA utilizing Cree’s high performance,
0.15um GaN on SiC production process. The CMPA901A020S operates from
9-10 GHz and targets pulsed radar applications such as marine weather radar.
With 3 stages of gain, this high performance amplifier provides >30dB of large
signal gain, potentially lowering the transmit BOM count, and >50% efficiency
to support lower system DC power requirements and simplify system thermal
management solutions. Packaged in a small 6x6 mm plastic overmold QFN, the
CMPA901A020S also supports reduced board space requirements and highthroughput manufacturing lines.
