GaN-Based AESA Radars Near Full Production (.PDF)

Feb. 11, 2016

Gallium-nitride (GaN) transistors have become a staple in military-grade radars, thanks to their ability to boost the amplification of microwave signals. GaN also carries a higher voltage than other semiconductor materials, such as silicon, allowing the system to operate on less power and produce less heat...
