The GaN HEMTs and MMICs wide-bandgap increase the breakdown field by five times and the power density by a factor of 10 to 20 compared with GaAs-based devices. Cree GaN components are smaller and have a lower capacitance for the same operating power. This means that amplifiers can operate over a wider bandwidth while exhibiting good input and output matching. X-band power amplifiers are moving away from inefficient GaAs pHEMTs and unreliable Traveling Wave Tubes due to the significant advantages of GaN HEMTs and MMICs. Typical applications include weather, defense and commercial based systems, air-traffic control, and fire-control.
