Fujitsu Components America Inc. Sunnyvale, CA, November 16, 2020 Today at the Sensors Innovation Week Fall virtual event, Fujitsu Components America, Inc. received the 2020 Best of Sensors: Most Innovative Product award in the medical category for its 3-channel, 24GHz Doppler radar sensor module (FWM7RAZ01). The awards recognize advancements in sensors technology across a diversity of applications based on: value to the marketplace, impact on the problems it solves or issues it addresses, and uniqueness of the design. Judges were Sensors Expo Advisory Board Members and FierceElectronics editors.
Lowell, Massachusetts, August 5, 2020MACOM Technology Solutions Inc. (“MACOM”), a leading supplier of semiconductor solutions, today announced at the virtual International Microwave Symposium (IMS) the introduction of its new Gallium Nitride on Silicon Carbide (GaN-on-SiC) power amplifier product line, which it is branding MACOM PURE CARBIDE™. The company also announced the introduction of the first two new products in the product line, the MAPC-A1000 and the MAPC-A1100. “This new product line significantly enhances the capability of our existing RF Power product portfolio,” said Stephen G. Daly, President and Chief Executive Officer. “GaN on Silicon Carbide is a compelling technology and we are excited to begin offering our customers both standard and custom MACOM PURE CARBIDE™ power amplifier solutions.”
The MAPC-A1000 is a high power GaN-on-SiC amplifier designed to operate between 30 MHz and 2.7 GHz and is housed in a surface mount plastic package. The easy-to-use general purpose amplifier integrates an input match which simplifies the customer’s design-in effort. The amplifier can deliver more than 25 W (44dBm) at greater than 50% efficiency from 500 MHz to 2.7 GHz when tested in a circuit designed for operation over 2.2 GHz simultaneous bandwidth.
The MAPC-A1100 is a high power GaN-on-SiC amplifier designed to operate up to 3.5 GHz. The device is capable of supporting both CW and pulsed operations with output power levels of at least 65 W (48.1dBm) in an air cavity ceramic package.
The two new general purpose amplifier products are ideal for use in avionics, high power mobile radios, wireless systems and test instrumentation.
Simplifies the design of non-contact movement detection products for Healthcare and Industrial IoT

Fujitsu Components America, Inc. has introduced a 3-channel, 24GHz Doppler radar sensor with a wide speed-detection range and high interference tolerance. The module and evaluation kit facilitates the rapid development and evaluation of various non-contact, movement sensing products even without high-frequency RF electronics expertise. Target applications include human vital sign and fall monitoring, structural and mechanical movement detection, machine maintenance, and more, for the healthcare and industrial markets.
The FWM7RAZ01 supports IF (I/Q) output signals from 1Hz to 1 MHz enabling it to wirelessly detect movement speeds from 6 mm per second to 6 km per second, within a 30-meter range. Although 1 MHz of Doppler Effect is not observable in real-world applications, it is effective for detecting signal interference. To prevent signal overlap, the system can select a different channel and avoid misdetection before it happens.
