A 30 WATT, 800 MHz AMPLIFIER DESIGN
Prepared by: Alan Wood Semiconductor Product Sector
INTRODUCTION
Simplicity and compactness mark the design of this 30 Watt amplifier des igned for the 800 MHz mobile communications band. The amplifier uses the internally matched MRF844 transistor in a common base Class C configuration providing a minimum of 5.0 dB gain over a fixed tuned bandwidth of 800 to 870 MHz at 12.5 volts. Lower manufacturing costs are of prime concern to land mobile equipment suppliers and single-board, fixed tuned transmitter amplifier designs are becoming increasingly common. Two versions are therefore presented, one using glass teflon laminate and the second using less expensive G-10 board.
