Introduction to the programmable differential amplifier, combining the best of fully differential amplifiers and digital variable gain amplifiers

Northrop Grumman Corp. has developed a line of gallium nitride (GaN) Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits (MMICs) for military and commercial uses. These devices represent the first commercial availability of GaN-based components from the company.

NuWaves Engineering of Middletown, Ohio, an international Radio Frequency (RF) and Embedded Systems solutions provider, will be exhibiting its high-performance, miniaturized RF products and also demonstrating its most recent technological advancement, a Power Amplifier Linearizer Module (“PALM”) at MILCOM 2012. 

M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc., a leading supplier of high performance analog semiconductor solutions, is showcasing a broad portfolio of new products for Networks, Aerospace and Defense, and Multi-Market applications at European Microwave Week (EuMW) 2012.  Product solutions on display in M/A-COM Tech’s booth #421 include:

Cree Inc. and Array Wireless help bring the clarity of high-definition (HD) video transmission to Sunday Night Football (SNF) on NBC. The HD NFL games are broadcast using wireless video systems from Array Wireless that employ Cree’s advanced GaN RF components. Array Wireless counts on Cree world-class RF GaN technology to create high efficiency, low distortion, robust power amplifiers that are essential for high-definition video transmission.

What: Amplifier Technology Ltd., (ATL) a provider of leading-edge RF power amplifiers (PAs) for defense, commercial, industrial, scientific, and medical applications, used a unique combination of AWR’s Microwave Office RF/microwave design suite and AMPSA’s MultiMatch Amplifier Design Wizard to design a complex multi-octave bandwidth, high power, high efficiency PA.

Richardson RFPD Inc. announces immediate availability and full design support capabilities for three new devices from Freescale Semiconductor Inc. (Freescale).

TriQuint Semiconductor Inc. has introduced three new devices for CATV infrastructure and fiber to the premises (FTTP) applications, including the industry’s first amplifier supporting return path DOCSIS® 3.0 channel bonding with 5 to 300 MHz bandwidth.

RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for TriQuint Semiconductor’s TQP3M9037, internally matched, low noise amplifier combining a 0.4 dB noise figure with 20 dB gain and 35 dBm OIP3 in a 2 x 2 mm DFN package. This newest addition to TriQuint’s LNA product line provides an instantaneous bandwidth of 1500 to 2700 MHz and requires only bypass/blocking capacitors and a bias inductor for operation, no matching components are required to achieve this high level of performance.

Aethercomm Inc., has recently completed a high power SSPA using a Gallium Nitride (GaN) with a frequency range covering 2.9 to 3.1 GHz: Aethercomm part number SSPA 2.9-3.1-300. The devices in this amplifier design are not matched, therefore the frequency band is scalable from 2.7 to 2.9 GHz or 2.7 to 3.5 GHz with similar performance. This high power SSPA produces 300 to 400 watts peak output power.
