“The GRF2115 exemplifies our ongoing commitment to enhancing the
performance of our industry-leading gain block amplifiers," says
Jim Ahne, Vice President of Marketing at Guerrilla RF. "This latest
innovation builds on the success of the GRF2013, our most popular
amplifier with over 15 million units sold to date. With the
GRF2115, our design team extended the core’s performance beyond its
previous 8 GHz limit, offering flatter gain, higher compression,
and superior linearity through 11 GHz – all critical parameters for
applications in test and measurement, satcom, aeronautical
telemetry, radar, ISM, WiFi 6E, and 5G."
When operated at its midpoint of 5 GHz, the device delivers 17
dB of gain, 21.8 dBm of OP1dB compression, 35.3 dBm of OIP3
linearity, and a low noise figure of 1.8 dB (as measured on the
device’s standard evaluation board; de-embedded NF values are
approximate 0.2dB lower). As with most of GRF’s amplifier cores,
the GRF2115 touts a flexible biasing architecture allowing for
customizable tradeoffs in linearity and power consumption. Supply
voltages can vary between 3 and 6 V, although most customers will
elect to use a standard 5 V supply with 130 mA of biasing
current.
The GRF2115 utilizes Guerilla RF’s popular 2 x 2 mm DFN-8
package – following an industry standard in both pinout and
footprint.
Pricing and Availability
Samples and evaluation boards are available for the GRF2115.
Prices start at $1.76 (10,000-up, EXW USA). Visit
