The compact dual-stage 250W LDMOS RF power module BPC2425M9X2S250-1 has been announced by Ampleon. Designed for high power continuous wave (CW) industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) applications operating in the 2,400 to 2,500MHz frequency band, the high efficiency module measures 72x34mm.

The module incorporates a temperature sensor to facilitate the monitoring and control of its temperature, multilayer board with integrated heat spreader and best in class LDMOS technology. The module also has a 50Ohm matched input and output, which simplifies the design-in process by removing the need for any tuning or additional matching components.

The BPC2425M9X2S250-1 RF power module is a compact and lightweight solution whose implementation eases the overall system design and manufacturing process by lowering component count and minimising space, an essential aspect of any space-constrained product design.

When operating from a 32VDC supply, the module has a peak output of 290W (CW), 300W (pulsed) and an efficiency of 59% (CW), 61% (pulsed) and a gain of 31dB.

Typical RF energy applications for the BPC2425M9X2S250-1 include use in industrial heating and drying systems, plasma lighting fixtures, and solid state cooking ovens.

Each module is full DC, RF tested and x-Rayed during production, ensuring customers can achieve high quality, reliability, and consistency in their end products.
