High-Performance SSPA Technology

Qorvo’s patented Spatium® RF power-combining technology provides a highly efficient and reliable alternative to traditional traveling wave tube amplifiers (TWTAs) in various applications, including commercial and defense communications, radar, and electronic warfare (EW). By utilizing advanced coaxial spatial combining techniques, Spatium dramatically enhances broadband RF power and efficiency, making it an ideal choice for modern RF system designers.

One of the significant advantages of Spatium technology is its customization potential, allowing for tailored solutions that meet specific operational needs. Qorvo's solid-state gallium nitride (GaN) monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) amplifiers significantly extend service lifetimes compared to both TWTAs and conventional planar power combining products. This reliability is crucial for mission-critical applications, where equipment performance and longevity are paramount.

In addition to improved performance and reliability, Spatium technology offers substantial benefits in size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C). RF system designers can achieve unprecedented combining efficiency with output power levels ranging from hundreds to thousands of watts, optimizing overall system design and functionality. The advantages of Spatium technology position it as a game-changer in the RF landscape, enabling more effective communication and operational capabilities in both commercial and defense sectors. Overall, Qorvo's Spatium technology stands out as a cutting-edge solution that meets the growing demands for high-power, ultra-broadband performance in a reliable, solid-state format.
