General Description
The TriQuint T1G4020036-FL is a 240 W Peak (48 W
Avg.) (P
3dB
) discrete GaN on SiC HEMT which operates
from DC to 3.5 GHz. The device is constructed with
TriQuint’s proven TQGaN25HV process, which features
advanced field plate techniques to optimize power and
efficiency at high drain bias operating conditions. This
optimization can potentially lower system costs in terms
of fewer amplifier line-ups and lower thermal
management costs.
Lead-free and ROHS compliant
Evaluation boards are available upon request.
