RFMW announces design and sales support for APA Wireless coaxial resonator oscillators (CRO). The R3200SMUA8CR delivers -117 dBc/Hz phase noise at 10 KHz offset at its operating frequency of 3200 MHz. VCC is 8 Volts while the tuning voltage range is 1 to 10 V. Typical output power is 6 dBm. Packaged in a standard 0.5 x 0.5 inch castellated SMT, the API Wireless R3200SMUA8CR is a form/fit/function replacement for the EOL Qorvo UMX-478-D16-G.

RFMW announces design and sales support for a high linearity, low-threshold, dual PIN limiter diode module. The Skyworks SKY16603-632LF integrates dual PIN limiter diodes and DC blocking caps into a module for protecting RF receivers in the 0.6 to 6 GHz frequency range. It has a low, small-signal insertion loss with a typical limiting threshold of +8 dBm. The SKY16603-632LF is capable of 35 dBm maximum saturated CW input power and a 1 ns recovery time. Targeted for cellular infrastructure base station, repeater, and wireless backhaul OEMs, it can also be used in broad market wireless systems including VSAT, S-band radar, military communications transceivers, jammers, GPS, test instruments, automotive and Wi-Fi applications.

RFMW announces design and sales support for Delta Electronics Manufacturing precision RF adapters. These precision in-series and between-series adapters are color coded to provide a critical visual indicator (Color Code) that promotes proper mating along with quick identification. Available in 2.92mm, 2.4mm, 1.85mm and 1.0mm, the interfaces are designed in accordance with IEC standards while the color coding matches the IEEE working group color scheme. For example, model 7934000K001-802-C is a precision 2.92 (male) to 2.92 (female) adapter functional to 40 GHz with a maximum VSWR or 1.25:1. Color coded with yellow bands near each connector interface, precision mating is assured thereby minimizing possible damage to any device under test (DUT) or expensive high frequency cable assemblies.

RFMW announces design and sales support for a low noise, high gain, wide bandwidth MMIC amplifier IC. The Qorvo QPL7433, single ended LNA combines flat gain with broad bandwidth of 50 MHz to 3.3 GHz. Matched to 50 ohms with 20 dBm P1dB and 17.5 dB of gain while drawing only 90 mA from a 5V supply, the QPL7433 supports cable, satellite and terrestrial TV applications, home gateways, and cable modems. Noise figure is 1.5 dB with OIP3 of 34 dBm. Available in a 2 x 2 mm DFN package.

RFMW announces design and sales support for Qorvo’s packaged broadband driver amplifier fabricated on Qorvo’s QGaN15 0.15 um GaN on SiC process. Operating from 6 to 12 GHz, the QPA2598 achieves 2.5 W output power with a Power Added Efficiency of 30% and harmonic suppression of -30 dBc. Under nominal bias, it provides 22 dB small signal gain and 16 dB of large signal power gain. An ideal choice to drive Qorvo’s high performing GaN HPAs, the QPA2598 is available in small form factor 4×4 mm overmold QFN which allows for easy system integration and the ability to run both driver and HPA off the same voltage rail.
