M/A-COM Technology Solutions has today announced a new MMIC power amplifier for high power broadband applications. The MAAP-010168 is a two staged amplifier operating between the 500 MHz to 3.0 GHz frequency range. The device is fully matched for input and output at 50Ω, which eliminates the customers’ need for any sensitive external RF tuning components.
Unlike competing products the MAAP-010168 boasts high reliability with added excellent efficiency and gain, providing a high power off-the shelf solution.

The MAAP-010168 is fabricated using a high reliability pHEMT process to realize higher power. The amplifier provides a nominal Gain of 24dB with excellent input and output return loss of 10 dB across the 500 MHz to 3.0 GHz band – altogether providing an excellent option for customers looking for high power solutions for their broadband applications.

“The MAAP-010168 is well suited to a range of applications due to its fully-matched, broadband power performance”, said Paul Beasly, Product Manager. “The convenient 10V bias operation, high gain and high power performance from 500 MHz to 3 GHz make the device incredibly versatile in multiple RF and Microwave applications such as repeater amplifiers, mobile infrastructure, air traffic control radars, weather radar, radio communication and test equipment.”

Production quantities and samples of MAAP-010168 are available from stock.
