MACOM MAMG-100227-010 GaN-on-Si power amplifier module

The MAMG-100227-010, from MACOM Technology Solutions, is a broadband, two-stage, GaN-on-Si hybrid power amplifier module in an air-cavity laminate package. The 10 W device is fully matched at input and output and covers a wide 225–2600 MHz frequency range.

A gold-plated copper heat sink is attached to the bottom side of the laminate substrate. The package can be accessed from the top or the bottom allowing for ‘live bug’ or ‘dead bug’ mounting. This mounting flexibility enables streamlined designs for small, light radios.

Additional features include: 28 V operation (typ), 36 V max; CW output power >10 W; 40% PAE; 22 dB power gain; and a compact size of 14 x 18 mm². The module is suitable for use in tactical military communications, LMR and wireless (public safety) markets.
