QPF4005
37 –ꢀ40.5ꢀGHz GaN Dual Channel Front End Module
Product Description
The QPF4005 is a dual-channel multi-function Gallium
Nitride MMIC front-end module targeted for 39GHz phased
array 5G base stations and terminals. For each channel a
multi-function MMIC die combines a low noise amplifier, a
low insertion-loss high-isolation TR switch, and a high-gain
high-efficiency multi-stage PA.
The QPF4005 operates from 37 GHz to 40.5 GHz range.
The receive path (LNA + T/R SW) is designed to provide
15dB of gain and a noise figure less than 4.5dB. The
transmit path (PA + T/R SW) provides 18 dB of small signal
gain and a saturated output power of 2W each channel.
The compact 4.5 mm x 6.0 mm surface mount package
configuration is designed to meet the tight lattice spacing
requirements and support multi-channel/dual-polarization
phased array applications.
The QPF4005 is fabricated on Qorvo’s 0.15um GaN on
SiC process. It is housed in an air-cavity laminate package
with an embedded copper heat slug. The copper slug,
coupled with a low thermal resistance die-attach process,
allows the QPF4005 to operate at the extreme case
temperatures needed in phased array applications.
