118777-HMC720LP3E

The 118777-HMC720LP3E is an Evaluation and Demonstration Boards and Kits board used for testing High Power GaN Power Amplifiers. The board is designed to provide a convenient platform for demonstrating GaN amplifiers in the 69GHz to 73GHz frequency range. It features an onboard bias circuit, on-board LED indicators and impedance matching components to help the user demonstrate the amplifiers performance.

Primarily, the board is used for evaluating expensive High Power GaN Power Amplifiers. The board is intended to make it easy for designers to test the performance of CDMA amplifiers up to a frequency of 73GHz, and accurately emulate the performance of the amplifiers in a host application. This evaluation and demonstration board serves to accelerate design time, shorten testing cycles and reduce design risk.

The 118777-HMC720LP3E works by providing power to each of the four different sections of the amplifier, such as output power, gain or phase response, and each section\'s impedance matching. This makes it easier for the user to understand the impact of any change on the amplifier parameters. The board also offers an onboard DC source for setting the amplifier bias, and enables the ground switch between the input and the amplifier ground.

The board also offers an adjustable output power, using a high voltage zero-ohms resistor. This allows the user to adjust the output power to accurately emulate the performance of the amplifier in a chosen application. By adjusting the output power, one can measure the gain or linearity of the amplifier.

In addition, the board provides an independent measurement test point, allowing a user to easily monitor the amplitude and phase of the output signal. The board also has an integrated test function, enabling a user to measure the gain of the amplifier over a specified frequency and power range.

As the 118777-HMC720LP3E board is used for evaluating and measuring high power GaN Power Amplifiers with a frequency range from 69GHz to 73GHz, it is an important tool for designers in the telecommunications industry. It offers an easy to use, cost effective platform for evaluating and demonstrating GaN amplifiers in a web based environment.
