Product Description
The TriQuint TGF2021-01 is a discrete
1 mm pHEMT which operates from
DC-12 GHz. The TGF2021-01 is
designed using TriQuint’s proven
standard 0.35um power pHEMT
production process.
The TGF2021-01 typically provides
> 30 dBm of saturated output power
with power gain of 11 dB. The
maximum power added efficiency is
59% which makes the TGF2021-01
appropriate for high efficiency
applications.
The TGF2021-01 is also ideally suited
for Point-to-point Radio, High-reliability
space, and Military applications.
The TGF2021-01 has a protective
surface passivation layer providing
environmental robustness.
Lead-free and RoHS compliant

These ratings represent the maximum operable values for this device.
Combinations of supply voltage, supply current, input power, and output power shall
not exceed P

Junction operating temperature will directly affect the device median time to failure
(T

). For maximum life, it is recommended that junction temperatures be maintained
at the lowest possible levels.
