Qorvo's QPA2215T is a Ka-band power amplifier fabricated on Qorvo's 0.15um GaN on SiC process (QGaN15), mounted to a high thermal conductivity tab.  Operating from 27.5 to 31.0 GHz, it achieves 2.5 W linear power with lower than −25 dBc intermodulation distortion products and 24.8 dB small signal gain. Saturated output power is greater than 40 dBm (10 W) with an associated power-added efficiency of 22.6 %.

QPA2215T is ideally suited to support satellite communications and 5G infrastructure.

To simplify system integration, the QPA2215T is fully matched to 50 ohms with integrated DC blocking caps on both I/O ports.

The QPA2215T is 100% DC and RF tested on-wafer to ensure compliance to electrical specifications.

Lead-free and RoHS compliant.
