SA3601 Overview
Description
The SA3601 is an integrated dual-band RF front-end that operates at both cellular (AMPS and TDMA) and PCS (TDMA) frequencies, and is designed in a 20 GHz fT BiCMOS process-QUBiC2. The low-band (LB) receiver is a combined low-noise amplifier (LNA) and mixer.
Key Features
- Low current consumption: LB ICC = 14 mA; HB ICC = 15.5 mA
- Outstanding low- and high-band noise figure
- LNAs with gain control (30 dB gain step)
- LO input and output buffers
- Frequency doubler
- On chip logic for network selection and power down
