The device is identical to TriQuint’s TGA9070 with the exception of additional bias circuitry that allows the flexibility to operate in two different modes. The high saturated power mode will give identical performance to the TGA9070. The high linearity mode will provide 2-3dB improvement in OTOI performance over the TGA9070. 16 14 12 10 8 6 4 2 0 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 Frequency (GHz) TGA 1088 Typical Saturated Output Power The TGA188 requires minimum off-chip components. Each device is 100% DC and RF tested on-wafer to ensure performance compliance. The device is available in chip form. Biased in High Saturated Power Mode 34 32 30 Pout @ Pin = 12dBm (dBm) The TGA1088 provides greater than 1W of output power across 23-29 GHz with a typical PAE of 35%. Typical small signal gain is 23 dB. The device may be biased for either high saturated power or high linearity via bond wire jumpers. 28 26 24 22 20 18 16 14 12 10 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 Frequency (GHz) Note: Devices designated as EPU are typically early in their characterization process prior to finalizing all electrical and process specifications.
