Description

Wolfspeed’s CGHV40050 is an unmatched, gallium nitride (GaN) high electron

mobility transistor (HEMT). The CGHV40050, operating from a 50 volt rail,

offers a general purpose, broadband solution to a variety of RF and microwave

applications up to 4 GHz. The reference HPA design in the datasheet operates

from 800 MHz to 2 GHz operation instantaneously. It is a demonstration

amplifier to showcase the CGHV40050’s high efficiency, high gain and wide

bandwidth capabilities. The device can be used for a range of applications from

narrow band UHF, L and S Band as well as multi-octave bandwidth amplifiers

up to 4 GHz. The transistor is available in a 2-lead flange and pill package.
