CMPA0560008S

RF Amplifiers Overview

The CMPA0560008S is a Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) High Power Amplifier manufactured by MACOM Technology Solutions. It utilizes Gallium Nitride on Silicon Carbide (GaN HEMT) technology to deliver high performance in a compact form factor. The device operates within a frequency range of 500 MHz to 6 GHz and provides an output power of 8 Watts. Key electrical specifications include a gain of 19 dB and a supply voltage rating of 28 V. The component is housed in a 32-lead Quad Flat No-leads (QFN) package measuring 5x5 mm, designed for surface mount installation.

RF Amplifiers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's datasheet to ensure correct packaging configuration, such as tape and reel or cut tape options. Confirm that the procurement channel sources genuine components directly from authorized distributors to avoid counterfeit risks. Check the moisture sensitivity level (MSL 3) requirements for proper storage and handling prior to assembly. Ensure compatibility with the intended PCB footprint and thermal management strategy for the 32-QFN package.

RF Amplifiers Selection Notes

Select this component when a broadband RF amplifier covering 500 MHz to 6 GHz is required. The 8W output power and 19dB gain make it suitable for mid-power applications. Consider the 28V supply requirement and the thermal characteristics of the QFN package during circuit design. Evaluate the need for external matching networks based on the system impedance requirements.

RF Amplifiers Part Context

This part belongs to MACOM's portfolio of GaN-based MMIC amplifiers designed for demanding RF environments. It is distinct from lower-power variants and different封装 types like flange-mounted packages. The CMPA series generally targets radar and electronic warfare sectors requiring robust performance over wide bandwidths.
