Product Description

The TriQuint TGA2509 is a compact

Wideband High Power Amplifier with

AGC. The HPA operates from 2-22 GHz

and is designed using TriQuint’s proven

standard 0.25 um gate pHEMT production

process.

The TGA2509 provides >28.5 dBm of

output power at 1 dB gain compression

with small signal gain of 17 dB. Typical

saturated power is 30 dBm from 2-16

GHz.

The TGA2509 is suitable for a variety of

wideband electronic warfare systems

such as radar warning receivers,

electronic counter measures,decoys,

jammers and phased array systems.

The TGA2509 is 100% DC and RF tested

on-wafer to ensure performance

compliance.

Lead-free and RoHS compliant
