The PA module is optimized for VREF = +2.85 V, a requirement for compatibility with the Qualcomm(R) 6250 chipset. The device is manufactured on an advanced InGaP HBT MMIC technology offering state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability, and ruggedness. Selectable bias modes that optimize efficiency for different output power levels, and a shutdown mode with low leakage current, increase handset talk and standby time. The self-contained 4 mm x 4 mm x 1 mm surface mount package incorporates matching networks optimized for output power, efficiency, and linearity in a 50 system.

The Bias Control table lists the recommended modes of operation for various applications. Shutdown Mode The power amplifier may be placed in a shutdown mode by applying logic low levels (see Operating Ranges table) to both the VREF and VMODE voltages. Three operating modes are recommended to optimize current consumption. High Bias/High VCC operating mode is for POUT levels > 16 dBm. At ~16dBm - 7 dBm, the PA should be "Mode Switched" to Low Bias Mode. For POUT levels < ~7 dBm, the VCC can be switched to 1.5 V (Low Bias Mode is also used for this POUT range). Bias Modes The power amplifier may be placed in either a Low Bias mode or a High Bias mode by applying the appropriate Table 5: Bias Control APPLICATION POUT LEVELS BIAS MODE WCDMA - low power <+7 dBm Low +2.85 V +2.85 V +1.5 WCDMA - med power 7 < POUT < +16 dBm Low +2.85 V +2.85 V +3.4 WCDMA - high power >+16 dBm High +2.85 V 0V +3.4 - Shutdown 0V 0V - Shutdown VREF VCC1 VMODE VCC VCC2 C1 0.01F 1 2 RF IN 3 4 VMODE 5 VREF C2 0.01F VCC VCC 10 C3 0.01F C4 2.2F ceramic 9 RFIN GND GND RFOUT VMODE GND 7 VREF GND 6 8 RF OUT GND at slug Figure 3: Application Circuit Schematic Data Sheet - Rev 2.1 11/2008 5 AWT6277R PACKAGE OUTLINE Figure 4: M20 Package Outline - 10 Pin 4 mm x 4 mm x 1 mm Surface Mount Module 77R 77R Figure 5: Branding Specification 6 Data Sheet - Rev 2.1 11/2008 AWT6277R COMPONENT PACKAGING Figure 7: Tape & Reel Packaging Table 6: Tape & Reel Dimensions PACKAGE TYPE TAPE WIDTH POCKET PITCH REEL CAPACITY MAX REEL DIA 4 mm x 4 mm x 1 mm 12 mm 8 mm 2500 13" Data Sheet - Rev 2.1 11/2008 7 AWT6277R ORDERING INFORMATION ORDER NUMBER TEMPERATURE RANGE PACKAGE DESCRIPTION AWT6277RM20P8 -20 oC to +90 oC RoHS Compliant 10 Pin 4 mm x 4 mm x 1 mm Tape and Reel, 2500 pieces per Reel Surface Mount Module AWT6277RM20P9 -20 oC to +90 oC RoHS Compliant 10 Pin 4 mm x 4 mm x 1 mm Partial Tape and Reel Surface Mount Module COMPONENT PACKAGING ANADIGICS, Inc. 141 Mount Bethel Road Warren, New Jersey 07059, U.S.A.
