Product Overview

The CMD262 is a 5 W GaN MMIC power amplifier die

ideally suited for Ka-band communications systems where

high power and high linearity are needed. The device

delivers greater than 24 dB of gain with a corresponding

output 1 dB compression point of +37 dBm and a saturated

output power of +38 dBm at 29% power added efficiency.

The CMD262 is a 50 ohm matched design eliminating the

need for external DC blocks and RF port matching. The

CMD262 offers full passivation for increased reliability and

moisture protection.
