RFHIC Enabling 5G with GaN Technology

As the wireless communication frontier shifts from the fourth generation (4G) to the forthcoming fifth generation (5G) – we expect a revolutionary change with the advent of the 5G era. The shift will involve not only the telecommunications industry and a wide range of vertical sectors, including healthcare, factory, automation, agriculture, industrial, and automotive.

5G will require ultra-high speeds in addition to the unprecedented level of reliability and responsiveness required for the demanding applications that will come about with the advent of the 5G era. RFHIC’s GaN on SiC power transistor products is designed with key requirements for 5g applications, such as higher thermal stability, power, efficiency, reliability, and flexibility. 

RFHIC’s GaN on SiC power transistors solutions deliver reliable, rugged broadband solutions for cellular base station applications that expand current 4G system capability and enable the transition to 5G in an easy and simplified manner. RFHIC offers a wide range of standardized and customizable GaN on SiC offerings packaged in a high-performance and cost-effective multi-layer ceramic package suitable for multiple bands and frequencies worldwide.

The core of RFHIC’s technology revolves around our various GaN (gallium nitride) solutions – (GaN SiC, GaN GaN, GaN Diamond, and more) due to its high-performance features: 

• Thermal Conductivity
• Excellent Efficiency
• Simplified Material Matching
• Longer Lifetime 

RFHIC’s GaN on SiC broadband solutions offers outstanding design and average output power. Due to GaN on SiC’s superior thermal characteristics, devices can have much high power with a smaller form factor while delivering the same performance. 

• Higher Frequency: Capable of operating at higher frequencies (sub-6GHz, UHF, VHF)
• Wider Bandwith: Providing faster speeds
• Higher Efficiency: Enabling more energy-efficient and compact systems 
• Superior Power: GaN on SiC provides superior thermal characteristics allowing the power per device to be much higher 

RFHIC has been a pioneer within the GaN RF & microwave industry for more than 30 years, delivering high-quality, performance, and cost-effective products needed to reimagine what’s possible within various industries. We’re more than just the world’s first and only GaN device-to-systems manufacturer. We’re innovators, creating the technology that transforms industries, enhances lives, and shapes our future. For decades we have been harnessing the unlimited potential of GaN technology so the wireless communications, defense, and RF energy sectors can – Re-imagine what’s possible. If it can be imagined, we can realize it, with speed, agility, and expertise that sets us apart.
