Qorvo’s QPA1000 is a high-power, S-band amplifier fabricated on Qorvo’s QGaN25 0.25 um GaN on SiC production process. Covering 2.8 – 3.2 GHz, the QPA1000 typically provides 47 dBm of saturated output power and 22 dB of large-signal gain while achieving 58 % power-added efficiency.
The QPA1000 can also support a variety of operating conditions to best support system requirements. With good thermal properties, it can support a range of bias voltages and will perform well under pulse applications. The QPA1000 is matched to 50 ohms with integrated DC blocking caps on both I/O ports. It is ideal for use in both commercial and military radar systems.
