LOWELL, Mass., June 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —
MACOM Technology Solutions Inc. (“MACOM”)
, a leading supplier of semiconductor products, today announced a new suite of high-performance RF solutions designed to meet the demanding requirements of aerospace and defense (A&D). Many of these solutions will be demonstrated in MACOM’s Booth 17035 at the upcoming International Microwave Symposium (IMS 2026) on June 9 to 11, 2026, in Boston, MA.
S-Band (2 – 4 GHz):
1.5 kW Power Amplifier
MACOM will highlight a high-power pulsed amplifier designed to deliver up to 15 dB of gain with 55% efficiency. This solution is ideal for radar and high-power microwave systems requiring reliable performance across S-Band frequencies.
High Power Limiter Using Advanced Multi I-Region HMIC Technology
Built using MACOM’s Multi I-Region HMIC technology, this compact solution provides high peak power handling capabilities, low loss and fast recovery, helping preserve signal integrity while safeguarding sensitive receive paths.
C-Band (4 – 8 GHz):
50 W Front End Module (FEM)
MACOM will showcase a versatile FEM integrating GaN-based transmit functionality with a low noise receive path and built-in limiter protection. The 50 W transmit path delivers 45% power added efficiency (PAE) with high power gain. Designed for radar frequency bands within the C-Band spectrum, the FEM can enable efficient transmit performance alongside low noise reception, supporting compact and high-performance system designs.
X-Band (8 – 12 GHz):
16 W GaN Front End Module (FEM)
An X-Band FEM will be featured, combining GaN-based transmit capabilities with low noise GaAs receive functionality and integrated receiver protection. The module can support efficient transmit performance alongside low noise, high linearity receive operation, enabling balanced system…
