Asymmetric Doherty Amplifier Delivers 40 / 80 W for 5G Massive MIMO

Dual Path Amplifier: QPD0011

September 16, 2021

RFMW announced design and sales support for a dual path amplifier from Qorvo. The QPD0011 is an asymmetric, dual-path, discrete GaN on SiC HEMT in a DFN package operating from 3.4 to 3.6 GHz. With 15 dB of gain, this device can deliver an average power of 15 W in a Doherty configuration or a Psat of 50 dBm at 3.5 GHz. Operating from a 48 V bias, the QPD0011 has applications in 5G massive MIMO, microcell and small cell base stations.
