MACOM Technology Solutions Inc., designers of analog RF, microwave, millimetre-wave and photonic semiconductors, components and subassemblies, announced an expansion to its power amplifier product portfolio with the MAPC-A1605 7,0 kW power amplifier. This device is suitable for high-power and high-voltage aerospace and defence applications, including radar and electronic warfare (EW) systems.
The MAPC-A1605 can operate at 960-1215 MHz and represents MACOM’s highest-power-level RF amplifier component product. This extremely high-power level was achieved by combining novel high-voltage circuit topologies with advanced packaging materials for improved thermal management. The MAPC-A1605 utilises MACOM PURE CARBIDE gallium nitride-on-silicon carbide (GaN-on-SiC) technology and operates at 150 V bias levels.
MACOM also introduced the MAPC-A1603 and MAPC-A1604, which operate at similar frequencies but lower voltages and lower output powers of 3,3 kW and 5,0 kW, respectively. Previously, MACOM’s highest-power amplifier was the MAPC-A1500, operating at 2,6 kW.
“Our customers want to transmit higher power levels and these new amplifiers will help enable that,” said president and CEO Stephen G. Daly.
