Nitronex's new 48V GaN-on-Si Technology Significantly Expands Market
Opportunities.
New 48V technology from Nitronex enables cooler, more reliable RF power
products.
Nitronex has shipped over 650,000 GaN-on-Si devices to military and
commercial customers.
Nitronex is presently the only fully-qualified supplier of Gallium
Nitride-on-Silicon (GaN-on-Si) power transistors and MMICs for RF and
Microwave applications.
Rugged, Robust
and Reliable
In 2006, Nitronex released the first GaN qualification
report to the industry. Since then, Nitronex has continued to advance
the technology and has announced a reliable 48V process and the ability to
develop products that survive a 15:1 VSWR at all phase angles, while holding
the device at 90ºC
baseplate.

Process technology
Nitronex develops and manufactures a wide range of
GaN-on-Si RF power transistors and MMICs for commercial
and military markets. Unlike digital CMOS, the silicon used by
Nitronex has a high resistivity (10,000 Ω/cm) which provides excellent loss
characteristics at RF and microwave frequencies. Our current portfolio
includes discrete transistor products ranging from DC-6 GHz, and 5W to over
200W of output power. We also offer highly integrated standard and
custom MMIC and hybrid products.
Nitronex Features 5W GaN PA MMIC and 60W Power Transistor
