Description

Cree’s CMPA901A020S is a packaged, 20W HPA utilizing Cree’s high performance,

0.15um GaN on SiC production process. The CMPA901A020S operates from

9-10 GHz and targets pulsed radar applications such as marine weather radar.

With 3 stages of gain, this high performance amplifier provides >30dB of large

signal gain, potentially lowering the transmit BOM count, and >50 efficiency

to support lower system DC power requirements and simplify system thermal

management solutions. Packaged in a small 6x6 mm plastic overmold QFN, the

CMPA901A020S also supports reduced board space requirements and highthroughput manufacturing lines.
