Delivers typical saturated output power (Psat) of 25.5 dBm across the
71 to 86 GHz frequency range for high bandwidth, long distance point to
point wireless backhaul
LOWELL, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc. ("MACOM"), a leading supplier of high
performance RF, microwave, and millimeter wave products, today
introduced the industry's highest power, full E-Band power amplifier,
delivering typical Psat of 25.5 dBm for the 71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz
frequency ranges in a single product. Optimized to enable fiber-caliber
data rates over long distances across 10 GHz of available E-Band
spectrum, MACOM's new E-Band power amplifiers equip designers of point
to point transceivers to maximize design flexibility by eliminating the
requirement for two different amplifiers to be used to cover the full
71-86 GHz E-Band frequency band.
MACOM's new MAAP-011106
E-Band power amplifier is ideally suited for small cell wireless
backhaul infrastructure, enabling data rates of 1 Gbps and higher to
accommodate surging data demand, particularly in densely populated metro
environments. Providing the industry's highest output power for
high-frequency E-Band operation, MACOM's new amplifier offers a broad
bandwidth and can reduce transceiver design and manufacturing costs via
the consolidation of PAs within compact, multi-band systems.
MACOM's E-Band power amplifier includes an integrated power detector and
supports 20 dB of small signal gain with variable gain control for
flexible performance tuning. Each device is RF tested to ensure
performance compliance, and is fabricated using an efficient pHEMT
process.
"MACOM's MMIC design expertise and decades-long innovation in point to
point wireless backhaul technology has distinguished us as a leading
supplier of power amplifiers across every frequency band," said David
Richardson, Product Line Director, Wireless, MACOM. "With the
introduction of our E-Band power amplifier, we're making it easier for
transceiver designers to achieve high linear power and gain control over
the full E-Band spectrum, while including the convenience and
performance of an integrated output power detector."
