FAQ
Q1: What information do you need to start the PA design?
I need frequency band, output power, modulation type, linearity/efficiency targets, supply voltage, size constraints, and application environment. Contact me before ordering for a free technical consultation to ensure the design meets your exact requirements.
Q2: Do you provide physical prototypes or only design files?
I provide complete design files and manufacturing documentation. You can fabricate the PA using the schematics, BOM, and PCB guidelines I deliver. The Advanced package includes fabrication support and tuning guidance for prototype development.
Q3: Which transistor technologies do you work with?
I design with GaN HEMT (high power density, wide bandwidth), LDMOS (rugged, cost-effective for narrowband), GaAs pHEMT/HBT (low noise, high frequency), and silicon BJT/MOSFET (low cost, lower frequencies). I select devices based on frequency, power, efficiency, and cost requirements.
Q4: Can you design power amplifiers for military or defense applications?
Yes. I have extensive experience with military RF systems, tactical radios, ruggedized designs, and high-reliability applications. All defense projects are handled under strict confidentiality, and I can sign NDAs as required.
Q5: What amplifier classes do you specialize in?
I design Class A/AB for high linearity, Class B/C for efficiency, Class D/E/F for switch-mode high efficiency, and Doherty architectures for efficiency at power back-off. The choice depends on your modulation scheme, linearity requirements, and efficiency targets.
Q6: Can you optimize for both efficiency and linearity?
Yes. For modulated signals requiring linearity (OFDM, QAM), I use techniques like Class AB with envelope tracking, digital predistortion-compatible designs, or Doherty architectures that maintain high efficiency at back-off power levels while meeting ACPR and EVM specifications.
