NEC develops high-speed, high-capacity power amplifier for next generation networks
TOKYO, Jan 19, 2023 - (JCN Newswire) - NEC Corporation (NEC; TSE: 6701) has developed a power amplifier that will serve as a key device for mobile access and fronthaul/backhaul wireless communication equipment to enable high-speed, high-capacity communications for 5G Advanced and 6G networks.
- TOKYO, Jan 19, 2023 - (JCN Newswire) - NEC Corporation (NEC; TSE: 6701) has developed a power amplifier that will serve as a key device for mobile access and fronthaul/backhaul wireless communication equipment to enable high-speed, high-capacity communications for 5G Advanced and 6G networks.
- This power amplifier uses GaAs technology that can be mass-produced and has achieved the world's highest output power(*) of 10 mW in the 150 GHz band.
- The newly developed power amplifier uses a commercially available 0.1-μm gallium arsenide (GaAs) pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (pHEMT) process.
- In terms of circuit design, this power amplifier eliminates factors that degrade performance in the high-frequency band and uses an impedance matching network configuration suitable for high output power.
