Description
Wolfspeed’s CMPA0060002D is a gallium nitride (GaN) High Electron Mobility Transistor
(HEMT) based monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC). GaN has superior
properties compared to silicon or gallium arsenide, including higher breakdown
voltage, higher saturated electron drift velocity and higher thermal conductivity. GaN
HEMTs also offer greater power density and wider bandwidths compared to Si and
GaAs transistors. This MMIC employs a distributed (traveling-wave) amplifier design
approach, enabling extremely wide bandwidths to be achieved in a small footprint.
