Richardson RFPD Announces Featured Lineup Of RF MMIC Amplifiers, Prescalers And Control Products From Microchip

Featuring low noise and high efficiency for SATCOM, electronic warfare, 5G and instrumentation applications

Richardson RFPD, Inc., an Arrow Electronics company, announced today the availability and full design support capabilities for a featured lineup of radio frequency MMIC devices from Microchip Technology.

Microchip amplifiers, prescalers and control products offer industry-leading performance with high gain, high linearity, good efficiency, and low noise. Many Microchip wideband RF products offer a positive gain slope, which acts as a linearity corrector to help overcome system signal losses. This helps enable longer ranges and offer more bandwidth.

The selection of Microchip RF MMICs includes:

• Highly efficient and linear RF power amplifiers: Support up to 31 GHz, improve SWaP (size, weight and power), variety of packages
• GaAs MMIC power amplifier ICs: Broadband power spanning DC to 70 GHz, includes distributed amplifiers with high efficiency, linearity and phase noise characteristics
• GaAs MMIC low noise amplifier ICs: Support up to 30 GHz, excellent noise and linearity performance, multiple product configurations, self-biased topologies and other critical features
• MMIC frequency divider, prescaler ICs: High-frequency operation up to 40 GHz, flexibility to divide by many ratios, low additive SSB phase noise; includes single-ended inputs and outputs to reduce component count and cost
• Phase frequency detector: With integrated prescalers, ideal for phase locked loop (PLL) applications
