Microwave Design and Manufacture

Providing unsurpassed amplifier and RF front-end solution performance for military and commercial applications

Current Programs by Frequency and Enabling Technology

Auriga's design team specializes in combining conventional techniques with novel approaches to create solutions that are innovative and reliable. We understand there are trade-offs between size and power, efficiency and linearity, and novelty and cost; and the strength lies in the ability to find the most balanced solutions for the customer.

Auriga engineers utilize a combination of original and established design techniques to provide solutions that are cutting-edge, yet low-risk. Some of these techniques include Envelope-Tracking, N-way Doherty, switch-mode biasing (Class D, E, and F), and digital/analog pre-distortion. Often, the ideal approach integrates digital, analog, and microwave circuitry to maintain compact size and affordability. We excel in custom, balanced solutions, and customers can expect to see technologies that offer:

• Higher output power
• More efficiency
• Better linearity
• Wider bandwidth
• Smaller size
• Lighter weight

Auriga has deep roots in solid-state device measurement, characterization, and modeling. Having a thorough understanding of device physics, Auriga engineers realize the full potential of the latest and greatest GaN- and GaAs-based technologies available today. Leveraging strong working relationships with most GaN and GaAs foundries from around the world, we utilize the best process to meet the project’s technical requirements. Often, we have access to foundries’ beta product, allowing Auriga to stay on the fore-front of bleeding-edge technology.

Having in-house modeling capability provides a unique advantage to Auriga. Rather than use foundry models that are intended for universal application, Auriga generates a custom model tailored for the specific design environment. This facilitates first-pass success, which translates to optimized performance, faster delivery and lower cost for the customer.

In addition to offering technical excellence, Auriga is dedicated to providing unparalleled customer service and professionalism. We will work with your team through every step of the process, from concept to production. Often, we are called upon when internal resources are unavailable or expertise is lacking. Auriga is capable of functioning independently or working together as a partner with your team.
