TGC4405

The TriQuint TGC4405 is a multifunction chip. It is an upconverter with RF output frequencies of 17 to 27 GHz. It contains a frequency doubler and local oscillator (LO) amplifier, operating at LO input frequencies of 8 to 13 GHz. The part is designed using TriQuint's 0.25 um 3MI power pHEMT process. The TGC4405 nominally provides 13 dB conversion gain and 28 dBm OTOI when operated with LO inputs from 2 to 5 dBm. The part also achieves 30 dBc typical isolation between the fundamental and doubled frequency. The TGC4405 is ideally suited for low cost markets such as point-to-point radio, and Ku band satellite communications. Each device is 100% DC and RF tested on-wafer to ensure performance compliance. The device is available in chip form. It is lead-free and RoHS compliant and has a protective surface passivation layer providing environmental robustness.
