DESCRIPTION
The TC4531 is a four-stage PHEMT power amplifier MMIC that is designed for use as an output stage or a driver in
VSAT ODU. The amplifier provides a minimum of 29 dB gain and delivers 1 watt output power from 13.75 to 14.5 GHz.
The small package provides a simple and cost effective solution to customized designs. The base material is gold plated
copper-tungsten for excellent thermal dissipation.
The MMIC is fabricated using Transcom’s proprietary GaAs PHEMT process. The process features full passivation for
increased performance and reliability. It is 100% RF tested to ensure compliance to performance specifications.
