IGNP1011L2400 is a high-power GaN-on-SiC RF power amplifier module/pallet that has been designed specifically for IFF/SSR systems operating under either Mode S ELM (48x [32 μs on, 18 μs off], 6.4% long-term duty cycle) or standard Mode S (128 μs, 2% duty cycle) pulse conditions. It supplies a minimum of 2200 W of peak output power -- with typically greater than 16 dB of gain and 57% efficiency -- and operates from a 50 V supply voltage. This RF power amplifier module/pallet is matched to 50 ohms at both input and output and is suitable for both 1030 and 1090 MHz.
