New Waveguide Power Amps Support Frequency Bands from 26.5 to 96 GHz
Fairview Microwave, an Infinite Electronics brand and a leading provider of on-demand RF, microwave and millimeter-wave components, has unveiled a new series of waveguide power amplifiers designed to cover high mm-wave frequency bands from 26.5 GHz to 96 GHz.
This range of waveguide power amplifiers delivers exceptional performance and adaptability to address the needs of a wide range of sectors including SATCOM, radar, wireless infrastructure, 5G and more.
These advanced waveguide power amplifiers employ state-of-the-art GaAs and GaN MMIC semiconductor techniques, guaranteeing exceptional efficiency in a space-efficient package.
Featuring gain levels ranging from 25 dB to 35 dB and output Psat levels extending from 20 dBm to 31 dBm, these amplifiers ensure top-notch performance throughout the popular Ka, Q, U, V, E and W bands.
Fairview Microwave’s waveguide power amplifiers are designed to endure demanding conditions, incorporating sturdy, compact, MIL-grade, gold-plated aluminum waveguide enclosures. They operate in temperatures from -40° F to +176 F (-40° C to +80°C) and can withstand exposure to 95% relative humidity and altitudes up to 10,000 feet.
These waveguide power amplifiers are ideal for a range of applications, such as satellite communications, research and development, prototype/proof of concept, test and measurement applications, and both airborne and ground-based uses.
“These new waveguide power amplifiers allow our customers to exploit the potential of high mm-wave frequencies for their diverse applications. We are confident they will significantly benefit industries requiring high-performance communication and networking systems,” said Tim Galla, Product Line Manager.
