Factory-Direct RF Power Amplifiers — 30W to 200W
GaN solid-state RF modules across 30 MHz – 6 GHz. We design and manufacture power amplifier platforms for system integrators, test engineers, and RF solution providers.
Instead of choosing from complex datasheets, we help you identify the correct power tier based on your system requirement before purchase — reducing integration risk, avoiding thermal mismatch, and ensuring stable field deployment.
Direct RF Factory Advantage
Working directly with the manufacturer removes uncertainty in RF system procurement.
You communicate directly with RF engineers — not distributors — to confirm system feasibility in one step.
→ Shorter selection cycleBefore ordering, we review output power requirement, duty cycle conditions, supply voltage stability, and thermal/cooling design — preventing integration issues after delivery.
→ Problems caught before they shipAll samples and mass production units follow identical design process, testing procedure, and burn-in validation. No performance drift between prototype and batch delivery.
→ Fewer integration surprisesEach unit is tested and validated before shipping, with a full RF performance report included.
→ Verified output before it reaches youOutput Power Defines the Entire RF System
In RF amplifier design, output power is the first selection parameter. It directly determines your DC supply requirement, thermal dissipation, mechanical platform, and system integration complexity.
Supply Voltage & Thermal Load
The power tier you choose sets your DC supply requirement and thermal dissipation level. Confirm these at the start — not after you've already integrated the wrong module.
Mechanical Platform
Output power determines the mechanical size and platform selection. Locking this early narrows a 40-model catalog to the 3–4 candidates that actually fit your chassis.
System Integration Complexity
When power tier is locked first, integration scope is clear. Engineers test against real deployment conditions — not a generic datasheet that may not reflect CW performance.
Common Engineering Risks in RF Procurement
Many project delays come from incorrect early assumptions.
Selecting a power tier that doesn't match real deployment conditions — buyers over-specify to 200W or under-specify to 100W, both creating downstream thermal or budget problems.
Datasheet values not matching CW real-world operation. Buyers discover this after integration — when there's no time to re-qualify a different model.
Thermal load is underestimated during integration. Supply voltage, current draw limits, and heatsink constraints should be locked before procurement — not after delivery.
Most RF distributors can deliver a module, but can't help you select the right power tier or review duty cycle and cooling architecture. The technical gap falls on your team.
We Eliminate RF Selection Uncertainty at the Source
Each risk above has a direct answer in how we operate as a source manufacturer.
All products are structured into five stable power tiers — 30W, 50W, 100W, 150W, and 200W — across four frequency bands. This simplifies system design and reduces selection time.
→ Standardized tiers reduce fit uncertaintyEvery unit is RF tested, burn-in validated for 48 hours, and has performance recorded per unit. Test reports are included with delivery — so you know what you're getting before you integrate it.
→ Verified performance, not just rated specsWe validate system compatibility before order confirmation — power requirement match, voltage and current feasibility, duty cycle and thermal behavior, and mechanical integration constraints.
→ Engineering review before you commitPrototype and production units follow identical process control. You communicate with the engineers who designed and built the modules — not a sales layer.
→ Technical alignment from day oneRF Power Amplifier Platform Overview
Select a power tier based on your system requirement. 100W is the most commonly used baseline for RF system integration.

How the Power Tiers Compare — and How to Choose
Compact / Evaluation
Low Current · 125mmBalanced mid-power
Standard Supply · 125mmEngineering baseline
Most Practical · 200mmHigh-output transmit
Extended Range · 200mmMaximum standard power
Max Output · 200mmLab evaluation, prototype validation, embedded low-power transmitters, compact chassis with tight thermal budgets.
Avoid if you need field-range output or plan to operate at high duty cycles.
Medium-range RF links, repeater feeds, test benches needing more headroom than 30W without full thermal infrastructure.
Avoid if your link budget requires more than modest range margin.
Most common starting point. First-stage field deployment, broadband integration, system prototyping. Shared 200mm platform enables upgrade to 150W/200W without chassis redesign.
Run a link budget first if your environment has difficult propagation.
Extended-range field applications, high-duty-cycle chains where 100W shows insufficient margin. Same chassis as 100W — minimal re-integration.
Verify your DC supply and cooling can support increased current before specifying.
Maximum range requirement, mission-critical coverage, applications where every dB of link margin counts.
Requires dedicated thermal management and high-current DC supply. Plan infrastructure before procurement.
What Procurement Teams Value About CorelixRF Modules
30W, 50W, 100W, 150W, and 200W are all maintained as standard production tiers — not custom variants. Shorter lead time, consistent specs, and predictable batch availability.
Each tier covers four discrete bands: 30–512 MHz, 300–1700 MHz, 300–2700 MHz, and 2–6 GHz. Frequency performance is tested and documented — not extrapolated.
VDC, maximum current draw, and mechanical dimensions are provided per model — not estimated. Plan your power supply and chassis before procurement, not after delivery.
Direct access to factory engineers for thermal review, interface adaptation, and integration support. Technical questions reach the people who built the product — not a distributor relay.
Sample units and production batches follow the same manufacturing and QC process. Performance validated on samples translates directly to batch deliveries.
Every unit ships with a verified RF test report. Burn-in, performance verification, and documentation are factory-standard — not optional add-ons at extra cost.

Manufacturing & Validation Process That Supports Stable Delivery
Repeatable output starts with a repeatable process. CorelixRF's manufacturing and QC workflow is designed to deliver consistent performance from first sample to final batch.
Typical Use Cases by Power Tier
Different output power levels serve different deployment contexts. Here is where each tier is most commonly specified.
Used for RF validation, prototype testing, and controlled lab environments. Low thermal overhead suits setups without dedicated cooling infrastructure.
Automated test equipment (ATE) TX chains and EMC test setups requiring repeatable, calibrated output.
Used in RF subsystem integration and field deployment platforms. Shared 200mm platform simplifies future upgrades to 150W or 200W.
Platform integration for larger transmit chain assemblies. Factory engineering support helps align supply voltage, cooling path, and connector interfaces.
Used in long-distance communication and high-margin RF links. Requires dedicated thermal management planning and verified DC supply headroom.
Maximum power in the standard platform for mission-critical applications. Specified from the design phase — not retrofitted.
Common Procurement Mistakes When Buying RF Power Amplifiers
These are the patterns we see most often cause integration delays or field performance shortfalls. Knowing them in advance saves significant project time.
Rated output power is measured under specific duty cycle and temperature conditions. A module specified at 100W CW will behave very differently at 50% duty cycle — confirm both before specifying.
Datasheet values represent lab conditions. Request actual test reports and ask the supplier to confirm performance under your specific duty cycle and thermal environment before procurement.
Supply voltage, maximum current draw, and cooling method must be locked before the purchase order. Late discovery of supply rail mismatches delays deployment by weeks — sometimes months.
The lowest-price module that doesn't match your power tier, frequency, or interface requirements costs more in re-qualification time than the price difference. Ask for engineering review before committing.
What Our Factory Background Means for Your Project
CorelixRF is the manufacturer — not a distributor or reseller. The practical implications of that distinction show up at four specific points in every procurement cycle:
Engineering-to-engineering communication — your technical requirements reach the design team directly. No translation layer, no spec drift between what you ask for and what gets built.
Accelerated sample-to-production path — R&D and production share the same facility. Performance validated on a sample transfers directly into your production batch without re-qualification risk.
Front-end technical review at no cost — before a purchase order is placed, factory engineers can review your duty cycle, VDC rail, cooling path, and connector requirements. Conflicts get caught early, not after delivery.
Export-ready documentation as standard — CE, RoHS, ISO 9001, per-unit RF test reports, and commercial invoicing for international shipment are part of every delivery, not optional extras.
What "direct factory" means in practice
Selection → confirmed faster
Power tier, frequency band, and supply requirements can be locked in a single technical conversation — not over three rounds of email with a sales team.
Sample → batch with no surprises
The module you test is made the same way as the batch you order. Same process, same QC steps, same test protocol.
Scaling → without chassis redesign
100W, 150W, and 200W share the same 200mm mechanical platform. Upgrading power tier doesn't require a new mechanical integration.
Problems → surface before they ship
48-hour burn-in and full RF verification per unit means field failures caused by factory defects are rare. If something fails burn-in, it never ships.
