CAP Wireless, Inc. has announced the debut of their CHPA0618-1 ultra-broadband power amplifier for broadband military platforms within the defense electronics and homeland security industries. The unit incorporates gallium arsenide (GaAs) monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) technology into CAP’s patented Spatium™ broadband spatial combining architecture. The amplifier achieves outstanding solid state power levels across the amplifier’s extended 6-18 GHz frequency range. The CHPA0618-1 is ideally suited for wideband applications such as electronic counter measures (ECM), laboratory instrumentation, and electromagnetic compatability/electromagnetic interference (EMC/EMI) test, as well as narrower band applications such as radar, microwave imaging, and satellite communications.
