General Description
The TQP0104 is a wide band over-molded QFN discrete
GaN power amplifier. The device is a single stage
unmatched power amplifier transistor.
The TQP0104 can be used in Doherty architecture for
the final stage of a base station power amplifier for small
cell, microcell, and active antenna systems. The
TQP0104 can also be used as a driver in a macrocell
base station power amplifier.
The wide bandwidth of the TQP0104 makes it suitable
for many different applications from DC to 4 GHz.
TQP0104 can deliver P
SAT
of 30 W at 28 to 32 V
operation.
Lead-free and ROHS compliant.
