Overview

The RMBA19500A is a highly linear Power Amplifier. The two stage circuit uses our pHEMT process.

  • 2 Watt linear output power at 36 dBc ACPR1 for CDMA operation
  • OIP3 ≥ 43 dBm at 27 and 30 dBm output
  • Small Signal Gain of > 30 dB

  • Only under quienscent conditions-no RF applied.
  • VDD = 7.0V, TC = 25°C. Part mounted on evaluation board with input and output matching to 50Ω. 3. 9 Channel Forward Link QPSK Source; 1.23 Mbps modulation rate. CDMA ACPR1 is measured using the ratio of the average power within the 1.23 MHz channel at band center to the average power within a 30 KHz bandwidth at an 885 KHz offset. Minimum CDMA output power is met with ACPR1 > 36 dBc.
  • OIP3 specifications are achieved for power output levels of 27 and 30 dBm per tone with tone spacing of 1.25 MHz at band-center with adjusted supply and bias conditions of Vdd = 6.5V and IdqTotal
