Qorvo QPA4536 is a K-Band Power Amplifier with integrated power detector. The QPA4536 operates from 24.2 – 26.5 GHz and is designed using Qorvo’s power pHEMT production process.
The QPA4536 typically provides 31.5 dBm output power at 1dB gain compression, and 33 dBm of saturated output power. The small signal gain is 18 dB, and Third Order Intercept is 43 dBm at 23 dBm SCL.
To simplify system integration, the QPA4536 is fully matched to 50 ohms with integrated DC clocking caps on both I/O ports. The QPA4536 is available in a low-cost, surface mount 28 lead 5x5 mm QFN package. It is ideally suited for supporting communications and radar applications in both commercial and military markets.
