MACOM North Carolina Semiconductor Center GaN-based HEMTs
MACOM North Carolina Semiconductor Center GaN HEMT MMIC processes feature high-power density (up to 9 Watts/mm) transistors, slot vias, high reliability up to 275ºC operating junction temperatures, and scalable unit cells (1 to 8mm/Cell). The value of such MMICs is more power bandwidth and higher efficiency within a smaller footprint compared to other MMIC technologies.
