Quick Start Guide 

The GSWP300W-EVBPA EVB is designed to as a platform for evaluating the GS66508B E-HEMTs in a 
Push-Pull  Class  EF2  PA  for  WPT.  This  chapter  will  guide  the  user  through  the  evaluation  board 
overview, PA operation, bench setup and test results.

.  The 100V

DC

 limit is based on 

capacitor selection.  Operation at a higher power level can be achieved if the capacitors are 
replaced with ones having a higher voltage rating. 

•
