CGHV96130F

130 W; 8.4 - 9.6 GHz; 50-ohm; Input/Output Matched GaN HEMT for X-Band Radar Applications
Wolfspeed’s CGHV96130F is a gallium nitride (GaN) High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) on Silicon Carbide (SiC) substrates. This GaN Internally Matched (IM) FET offers excellent power added efficiency in comparison to other technologies. GaN has superior properties compared to gallium arsenide; including higher breakdown voltage; higher saturated electron drift velocity and higher thermal conductivity. GaN HEMTs also offer greater power density and wider bandwidths compared to GaAs transistors. This IM FET is available in a metal/ceramic flanged package for optimal electrical and thermal performance.

This Simulation of power amplifiers (PAs) for modern wireless base station and small cell systems is an essential part of the design process. At a cell site – the PA consumes the bulk of the dc power – generates the most heat – and thus represents the greatest operational cost. Maximum PA efficiency is a necessity to manage these costs – which is a sizeable challenge in a PA that also must be highly linear to support the complex multilevel modulation types and wide bandwidths used for current and developing wireless transmission standards. Accurate simulation allows the PA designer to meet these challenges by exploring the available design options and then optimizing the circuit that is selected for the application.

Improving Pulse Fidelity in RF Power Amplifiers
A radar system designer’s most coveted objectives are achieving a long range, adequate resolution to distinguish objects in close proximity to each other, and the ability to not only determine target velocities but target types in order to help differentiate friendlies from adversaries.A combination of both approaches is essential, and engineers can design for peak power points of the load-pull simulation while also paying attention to other parts of the circuit for baseband signal fidelity.
