Description
Wolfspeed’s CMPA0060002F 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 screw-down package featuring a copper-tungsten heat sink.
