The Bias Control table below 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 the VEN, VMODE1 and VMODE2 voltages. Three operating modes are recommended to optimize current consumption. High Bias/High Power operating mode is for POUT levels > 16 dBm. At ~17dBm - 6 dBm, the PA could be switched to Medium Power Mode. For POUT levels < ~8 dBm, the PA could be switched to Low Power Mode for extremely low current consumption. Bias Modes The power amplifier may be placed in either Low, Medium or High Bias modes by applying the appropriate logic level (see Operating Ranges table) Table 7: Bias Control APPLICATION POUT LEVELS BIAS MODE VEN VMODE1 VMODE2 VCC VBATT Low power (Low Bias Mode) < +8 dBm Low +1.8 V +1.8 V +1.8 V 3.1 - 4.35 V > 3.1 V Med power (Medium Bias Mode) > 6 dBm < +17 dBm Low +1.8 V +1.8 V 0V 3.1 - 4.35 V > 3.1 V High power (High Bias Mode) > +16 dBm High +1.8 V 0V 0V 3.1 - 4.35 V > 3.1 V - Shutdown 0V 0V 0V 3.1 - 4.35 V > 3.1 V Shutdown VBATT VCC C5 2.2 F C1 33pF 1 2 RFIN VMODE2 VMODE1 VEN VBATT VCC RFIN RFOUT 10 9 3 VMODE2 CPLIN 8 4 VMODE1 GND 7 5 VEN CPLOUT 6 Figure 9: Evaluation Board Schematic 8 C2 0.1F GND at slug Data Sheet - Rev 2.5 03/2012 C3 2.2F ceramic RFOUT CPLIN CPLOUT ALT6704 PACKAGE OUTLINE Figure 10: M45 Package Outline - 10 Pin 3 mm x 3 mm x 1 mm Surface Mount Module Pin 1 Identifier Date Code YY= Year WW = Work Week 6704R LLLLNN YYWWCC Part Number Lot Number Country Code(CC) Figure 11: Branding Specification - M45 Package 9 Data Sheet - Rev 2.5 03/2012 ALT6704 PCB AND STENCIL DESIGN GUIDELINE Figure 12: Recommended PCB Layout Information 10 Data Sheet - Rev 2.5 03/2012 ALT6704 COMPONENT PACKAGING Pin 1 Figure 13: Carrier Tape Figure 14: Reel 11 Data Sheet - Rev 2.5 03/2012 ALT6704 ORDERING INFORMATION ORDER NUMBER TEMPERATURE RANGE PAKCAGE DESCRIPTION COMPONENT PACKAGING ALT6704RM45Q7 -40 C to +90 C ROHS Compliant 10 Pin 3 mm x 3 mm x 1 mm Surface Mount Module Tape and Reel, 2500 pieces per Reel ALT6704RM45P9 -40 C to +90 C ROHS Compliant 10 Pin 3 mm x 3 mm x 1 mm Surface Mount Module Partial Tape and Reel ANADIGICS, Inc. 141 Mount Bethel Road Warren, New Jersey 07059, U.S.A.
