    Qorvo's QPA1314 is a packaged high power MMIC amplifier, fabricated on Qorvo's production 0.15 um GaN on SiC process (QGaN15).  QPA1314 is targeted for 13.75 – 14.5 GHz Satcom band.  Linear power is 20 W with 25 dBc third order intermodulation distortion products.  It provides 40 W of output power with 27 dB of large signal gain while achieving 30% power-added efficiency.  Operating frequency can extend to 12.75 – 15.35 GHz if desired.

    The QPA1314 is packaged in a 10-lead 15 x 15 mm bolt-down with a Cu base for superior thermal management.  To simplify system integration, the QPA1314 is fully matched to 50 ohms with DC grounded I/O ports for optimum ESD performance. 
     
    The QPA1314 is ideal for supporting communications and radar applications in both commercial and military markets.
     
    The QPA1314 is 100% DC and RF tested to ensure compliance to electrical specifications.
     
    Lead-free and RoHS compliant
