MAX2242 2.4GHz to 2.5GHz Linear Power Amplifier

The MAX2242 low-voltage linear power amplifier (PA) is designed for 2.4GHz ISM-band wireless LAN applications. It delivers +22.5dBm of linear output power with an adjacent-channel power ratio (ACPR) of <-33dBc 1st-side lobe and <-55dBc 2nd-side lobe, compliant with the IEEE 802.11b 11MB/s WLAN stand.

MAX2242 Features

* an external bias control pin. Through the use of an external DAC, the current can be throttled back at lower output power levels while maintaining sufficient ACPR performance. As a result, the highest possible efficiency is maintained at all power levels. The device operates over a single +2.7V to +
