The TriQuint TGA9083 - EEU is a monolithic power amplifier which operates from 6.5 to DESCRIPTION 11.5 GHz. This device is currently classified as an Engineering Evaluation Unit. This t wo stage power amplifier partially consists of a 2.5 -mm pHEMT driving a 11.36 -mm pHEMT at the output. The TGA9083-EEU is capable of providing 8 Watts of output power with 35% PAE when biased at 9 Volts. Typical 7 Volts operation provides 5 Watts of output power with a power-added efficiency of 40 percent. Typical small signal gain is 1 9-dB. In balanced configuration, 12 Watts of output power is achievable with 40 % PAE. The TGA9083-EEU is fabricated using TI’s 0.25um T-gate power pHEMT process. This device offer s either standard gate biasing or an on-chip active gate bias circuit which simplifies gate biasing . The active gate bias (AGB) circuit requires a - 5 V supply. This amplifier's output power and high efficiency over 6.5 to 11.5 GHz mak e it a viable power amp solution in app...
