    Qorvo's TGA2238-CP is a packaged, high power X-band amplifier fabricated on Qorvo's 0.25 um GaN on SiC production process. Operating from 8 -11 GHz, the TGA2238-CP achieves 50 W saturated output power with 24 dB power gain and 34 % power-added efficiency.

    The TGA2238-CP is packaged in a 10-lead 15 x 15 mm bolt-down package with a Cu base for superior thermal management. Both RF ports (RF input internally DC blocked) are matched to 50 ohms allowing for simple system integration.

    The TGA2238-CP is ideally suited for both military and commercial x-band radar systems and data links.

    Lead-free and RoHS compliant.
