Product Overview

Qorvo’s TGA4548-SM is a high frequency, high power

MMIC amplifier fabricated on Qorvo’s production 0.15um

GaN on SiC process (QGaN15). The TGA4548-SM

operates from 17 – 20 GHz and typically provides 10 W

saturated output power with power-added efficiency of 30%

and large-signal gain of 22 dB. This combination of high

frequency performance provides the flexibility designers

are looking for to improve system performance while

reducing size and cost. The TGA4548-SM also has an

integrated power detector to support system diagnostics

and other needs.

The TGA4548-SM is offered in a small 5x5.5 mm surface

mount package, matched to 50

and has integrated DC

blocking capacitors on both RF ports allowing for simple

system

integration.
