    Qorvo's TGA2599-SM is a packaged driver amplifier fabricated on Qorvo's TQGaN25 0.25um GaN on SiC production process. The TGA2599-SM operates from 5.0 to 8.0GHz and provides 33 dBm of output power with 15 dB of large signal gain and 34% power-added efficiency.

    Using GaN MMIC technology and plastic packaging, the TGA2599-SM provides a low cost driver solution that provides the added benefit of operating on the same voltage rail as the corresponding GaN HPA. It can also serve as the primary amplifier on lower power architectures.

    The TGA2599 is offered in a small 4 x 4 mm plastic overmold QFN, fully matched to 50 ohms and includes integrated DC blocking caps on both RF ports allowing for simple system integration.

    Lead-Free & RoHS compliant.

    Evaluation Boards are available on request.
