Component distributor Richardson RFPD has prepared a couple of documents on the options available for designers of RF amplifiers.

 

RichardsonRFPD rf power amplifiers

Rather than in-depth, they are a useful introduction to the different possibilities of discrete RF transistors, impedance-matched FETs (IMFETs), and integrated circuit RF amplifiers (MMICs), with component examples picked multiple manufactures whose products it stocks.

 

The papers are:

 

 

Discrete transistor, IMFET or power amplifier IC… Selection by application

 

 

Discrete transistor, IMFET or power amplifier IC… Which is best?

 

These were released alongside the company announcing design support “for a featured line-up of RF power amplifier solutions”.

 

Amongst RF components that it handles are the three featured in the papers plus power amplifier modules, front end boards and pallet amplifiers.

 

Amongst the companies whose products it stocks are Analog Devices, Empower RF Systems, ERZIA, Guerrilla RF, Macom, Microchip, NXP, Skyworks, Tagore Technology, TT Electronics, United Monolithic Semiconductors and Wolfspeed.
