• 10W fully-matched, two-stage PA covers the 225 – 2600 MHz frequency range
• Top-side and bottom-side mounting flexibility streamlines designs for smaller, lighter radios
• MACOM’s MAMG-100227-010 PAs are available to customers today

LOWELL, Mass. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — January 22, 2019 — MACOM Technology Solutions Inc. (“MACOM”), a leading supplier of semiconductor solutions, has expanded its GaN-on-Si power amplifier portfolio with the introduction of its new MAMG-100227-010 broadband PA module optimized for use in land mobile radio (LMR) systems, wireless public safety communications and military tactical communications and electronic countermeasures (ECM). Combing the design efficiencies of a fully-matched (50 Ω), two-stage PA architecture with top-side and bottom-side mounting configurability, the MAMG-100227-010 is poised to enable unprecedented design flexibility for radios balancing stringent size, weight and power (SWaP) specifications.
