Richardson RFPD Inc. announced the availability and full design support capabilities for a LDMOS transistor from NXP Semiconductors. The MRF8VP13350NR3 is a 350 W CW transistor designed for industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) applications in the 700 MHz to 1300 MHz frequency range. It is capable of 350W CW or pulse power in narrowband operation. The device is internally input matched for ease of use, and it can be used single-ended or in a push-pull configuration.
Richardson RFPD Inc. announced the availability and full design support capabilities for a monolithic phase and amplitude controller (MPAC) from Peregrine Semiconductor Corporation. The PE46120 covers a frequency range of 1.8 GHz to 2.2 GHz and integrates a 90-degree hybrid splitter, digital phase shifters and a digital step attenuator (DSA), along with a low voltage CMOS serial interface. The MPAC is designed for precise phase and amplitude control of two independent RF paths.
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for two Skyworks Inc. high power, PIN diodes suitable for T/R and attenuator applications. The SMP1331-085LF (shunt connected) and SMP1331-087LF (series connected) diodes are capable of handling 50 W CW power in a shunt connected switch configuration. Large signal attenuator applications ranging from 10 MHz to beyond 6 GHz are also possible. 
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for the Qorvo TGF3021-SM GaN transistor offering over 30 W of P3 dB output power. Functioning from 30 MHz to 4 GHz, the TGF3021-SM is a discrete GaN on SiC HEMT supporting multiple high power applications such as LMR radio, commercial and military radar, RF jammers and test instrumentation. Capable of both CW and pulsed performance, typical PAE is 72.7%. 
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for the Qorvo TGA2239-CP high power MMIC amplifier offering 35 W of saturated CW output power for Ku-band applications. The Qorvo TGA2239-CP operates from 13.4 to 15.5 GHz with power added efficiency of >34% and small signal gain of 25.5 dB. Processed using GaN on SiC technology, the TGA2239-CP draws 900 mA from a 22 V supply.
Richardson RFPD Inc. announced the availability and full design support capabilities for a divide-by-4 prescaler from Peregrine Semiconductor Corporation.The PE35400 is a high-performance UltraCMOS® prescaler with a fixed divide ratio of 4 and an operating frequency range from 3 to 13.5 GHz. It operates on a single voltage supply with a frequency-selecting bias resistor, draws a low current of 16 mA, and has a low SSB phase noise of -135 dBc/Hz at 3.025 GHz output frequency.
Richardson RFPD Inc. announced the availability and full design support capabilities for a new six-channel silicon carbide MOSFET driver from Wolfspeed, a Cree Company. The CGD15FB45P1 features six output channels, isolated power supply, a direct-mount low inductance design, short circuit protection, and over-temperature and under-voltage protection. The new gate driver has a smaller footprint and enhanced functionality over the previous version.
