High Power RFICs

Solutions for Mobile Wireless Infrastructure Equipment



Discrete devices have dominated high-power RF amplifiers for cellular and mobile wireless infrastructure network equipment since the inception of the industry. Recently, high-power monolithic RFICs are starting to challenge that position. RFICs have been around for a long time, but historically they have been too expensive and their power levels too low to make a profound impact on the market. Pricing and power levels are now competitive compared to discrete parts. In the next few years, high-power RFICs could become a powerful disruptive force to this important market segment.
