QPD1019
500W, 50V, 2.9 – 3.3 GHz, GaN RF IMFET
Product Overview
The QPD1019 is a 500 W (P
3dB
) internally matched discrete
GaN on SiC HEMT which operates from 2.9 to 3.3 GHz on
a 50V supply rail. The device is GaN IMFET fully matched
to 50 Ω in an industry standard air cavity package and is
ideally suited for military radar.
RoHS compliant
Evaluation boards are available upon request.
