The ARQSP2527-4 from iCana is a GaAs Power Amplifier (PA) that operates from 2.5 to 2.7 GHz, covering the n7, n38, and n41 5G NR-FR1 frequency bands. It delivers a saturated output power of 36 dBm (~4 W) with a power gain of 37 dB and a power-added efficiency (PAE) of 32%. This amplifier has an ACLR of less than -50 dBc with digital pre-distortion and a return loss of less than 12 dB. This PA is manufactured using GaAs technology and has fully matched input and output ports. It requires a DC supply of 5.0 V.
This amplifier is available in a 16-Pad LGA package that measures 5.0 x 5.0 x 1.1 mm. It is ideal for 3GPP 5G NR FR1 band (n7, n38, and n41) systems, 3GPP 4G LTE band 7/38/41/69 systems, FDD and TDD systems, repeaters/DAS, small cells, and general-purpose wireless applications.
