MACOM to demo RF and microwave amplifiers, switches and filters at IMS
In booth #6050 at IEEE’s International Microwave Symposium (IMS 2022) in the Colorado Convention Center, Denver (21–23 June), MACOM Technology Solutions Inc of Lowell, MA, USA (which designs and makes analog RF, microwave, millimeter-wave and photonic semiconductors, components and subassemblies) is demonstrating a range of new products optimized for telecom, satcom, aerospace & defense, test & measurement, and industrial applications.
MACOM’s Design, Applications and Sales Engineering teams are hosting ten live demonstrations. Product demonstration categories include the following:
RF and microwave amplifiers
- Aerospace – MACOM’s new, customizable RF pallet designs using MACOM PURE CARBIDE GaN amplifiers and integrated power management solutions.
- Radar – High-voltage power amplifier with greater than 4.5kW output power performance.
- Satcom – Ka-band GaN MMICs for pulsed and continuous wave (CW) power applications, and advanced E-band MMIC solutions with an industry-leading power amplifier combiner using waveguide WR-12 packaging.
- 5G telecom – 8W and 10W power amplifier modules (PAMs) for mMIMO (massive multiple-input-multiple-output) applications.
BAW filters
MACOM is showcasing its first bulk acoustic wave (BAW) filter products for industrial and defense applications. The high-performance chip-scale filters will be integrated into a switched filter bank and customized signal chain to demonstrate their selectivity and power-handling capability.
Switches
The switch product demonstrations showcase MACOM’s high-frequency silicon-on-insulator (SOI) and aluminium gallium arsenide (AlGaAs) switch perf ormance. The firm’s application team can provide customers insight into selecting the best technology for their broadband, test & measurement or other industrial applications.
