    Quantic X-Microwave Expands X-MWblocks Catalog with New UMS Amplifier Family

    ­Quantic X-Microwave®, a business of Quantic Electronics® (“Quantic”) and leading provider of modular RF and microwave solutions, today announced the immediate availability of over twelve new high-performance amplifier products from United Monolithic Semiconductors (UMS), integrated into their innovative X-MWblocks®system.

    This new offering includes a variety of wideband GaAs LNAs operating from 0.5 to 44 GHz, as well as several GaAs drivers operating from 0.5 to 20 GHz and from 36 to 40 GHz, and a 2.5 W HPA operating from 17 to 24 GHz. A 6–18 GHz, 20 W GaN wideband HPA is also available. UMS amplifiers are renowned for their high gain, low noise, wide bandwidth and high reliability — all of which are crucial for demanding, high-performance applications.

    Quantic X-Microwave’s modular design platform enables rapid prototyping and flexible design by allowing engineers to easily assemble modular components in their X-MWblocks, significantly reducing development time and risk. The integration of these new UMS amplifiers further empowers engineers to quickly build and test advanced microwave circuits.
