    Qorvo's TGA2597 is a driver amplifier fabricated on Qorvo's TQGaN25 0.25um GaN on SiC production process. The TGA2597 operates from 2.0 to 6.0 GHz and provides > 31.5 dBm of output power with >13.5 dB of large signal gain and > 31 % power-added efficiency.

    The TGA2597 operates with the same drain bias as corresponding GaN HPA's making it an ideal driver amplifier. It can also function as the output amplifier in lower power applications. The TGA2597 is internally matched to 50 ohms, and includes integrated DC blocks on both RF ports allowing for simple system integration.

    Lead-free and RoHS compliant.

    Evaluation boards are available upon request.
