C4H2327N55PZ

Overview

The C4H2327N55PZ is a Gallium Nitride (GaN) packaged Doherty power transistor designed for base station applications in the 2300 MHz to 2690 MHz frequency range. It features an internally matched design and lower output capacitance optimized for Doherty configurations. Typical performance at Tcase = 25 °C includes a drain efficiency of 54.1% with 6.8 W average output power at 2300-2400 MHz under 1-carrier W-CDMA testing, and 55% efficiency with 7.8 W average output power at 2496-2690 MHz. Pulsed CW operation yields up to 46.9 W output power at 2300-2400 MHz and 46.5 W at 2496-2690 MHz.
