High-Performance, High-Gain and Low-Noise MMIC Amplifiers
Our portfolio of Radio Frequency/Microwave (RFMW) amplifiers includes distributed, wideband, low-noise, gain block, driver and Power Amplifiers (PAs). We offer amplifiers that span up to 70 GHz and deliver best-in-class noise and linearity performance.
With multiple product configurations ranging from die solutions to surface mount packaging and QFNs, our RF amplifiers also include critical features such as self-biased topologies, RF I/Os internally matched to 50 ohms and positive gain slope correction. Typically, these are high-performance components designed for use in receiver or transmitter lineups.
Whether you are looking for a Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA), driver amplifier, distributed amplifier, band-specific MMIC amplifier or a PA, our portfolio of MMIC amplifiers targets a broad range of applications including those in 5G, electronic warfare, radars, test and measurement and Satellite and Military Communications (Satcom).
MMIC Amplifiers Advantages
Integration and Miniaturization
MMICs integrate multiple components onto a single chip, reducing the size and weight of the circuit, which is crucial for space-constrained applications like mobile devices and satellites.
Consistency and Reliability
The manufacturing process of MMICs ensures that each amplifier has consistent performance characteristics, leading to high reliability and repeatability in mass production.
High Performance
MMIC amplifiers can operate at high frequencies (GHz range) with high gain, low noise figure and high linearity, making them suitable for high-frequency applications such as radar, communication systems and satellite transceivers.
Improved Thermal Management
MMICs can be designed with effective thermal paths to dissipate heat, which is important for maintaining performance and reliability at high power levels.
Ease of Use
MMIC amplifiers often come with matched input and output impedances and integrated biasing (self-biasing), which simplifies the design process for system integrators and reduces the need for additional matching components.
Broadband Operation
Many MMIC amplifiers are designed to operate over a wide frequency range, providing flexibility and reducing the need for multiple narrowband amplifiers.
Ruggedness
MMICs can be made using materials like Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) or Gallium Nitride (GaN), which offer high breakdown voltages and temperature resilience, making them suitable for harsh environments.
