This gap exists between discrete devices and power amplifiers. Polyfet has decided to offer simple and affordable modules that still meet popular application needs. Essentially, these new modules operate as voltage-controlled amplifier blocks that can be switched on/off in 5 µs. Specifically, the MLCQ01 module delivers 50 W P1dB (80 W Psat) with a gain of 35dB across 20-512 MHz with a nominal operating voltage of 28 VDC.
In addition to the line of broadband power modules, Polyfet manufactures and develops a complete line of broadband power transmitters.
