This PA incorporates ANADIGICS’ HELP4TM technology to deliver exceptional efficiency at low power levels and low quiescent current without the need for external voltage regulators or converters. The device is manufactured using advanced InGaPPlus TM HBT technology offering state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability, and ruggedness. Three 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. A “daisy chainable” directional coupler is integrated in the module, thus eliminating the need of an external coupler. The self-contained 3 mm x 3 mm x 1 mm surface mount package incorporates matching networks optimized for output power, efficiency, and linearity in a 50 Ω system.

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 ~16 dBm - 6 dBm, the PA could be switched to Medium Power Mode. For POUT levels < ~6 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 5: Bias Control APPLICATION POUT LEVELS BIAS MODE VEN VMODE1 VMODE2 VCC VBATT Lowpower (LowBiasMode) <+6dBm Low +1.8V +1.8V +1.8V 3.2-4.35V >3.2V Medpower (MediumBiasMode) >6dBm <+16dBm Low +1.8V +1.8V 0V 3.2-4.35V >3.2V Highpower (HighBiasMode) >+16dBm High +1.8V 0V 0V 3.2-4.35V >3.2V - Shutdown 0V 0V 0V 3.2-4.35V >3.2V Shutdown VBATT VCC C5 2.2µF C1 0.01 µF 1 2 RFIN VMODE2 VMODE1 VEN C3 GNDatslug 3 VBATT VCC RFIN RFOUT 10 330pF 9 VMODE2 CPLIN 8 4 VMODE1 GND 7 5 VEN CPLOUT 6 C2 C4 0.01 µF 2.2µFceramic RFOUT CPLIN CPLOUT Figure 3: Evaluation Board Schematic Data Sheet- Rev 2.1 04/2011 5 ALT6712 PACKAGE OUTLINE Figure 4: 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 6712R Part Number LLLLNN YYWWCC Lot Number Country Code (CC) Figure 5: Branding Specification - M45 Package 6 Data Sheet- Rev 2.1 04/2011 ALT6712 COMPONENT PACKAGING Pin 1 Figure 6: Tape & Reel Packaging Table 6: Tape & Reel Dimensions PACKAGETYPE TAPE WIDTH POCKETPITCH REEL CAPACITY MAX REEL DIA 3mmx3mmx1mm 12mm 4mm 2500 7" Data Sheet- Rev 2.1 04/2011 7 ALT6712 ORDERING INFORMATION ORDER NUMBER TEMPERATURE RANGE PACKAGE DESCRIPTION ALT6712RM45Q7 -30oCto+90oC RoHSCompliant10Pin 3mmx3mmx1mm TapeandReel,2500piecesperReel SurfaceMountModule ALT6712RM45P9 -30oCto+90oC RoHSCompliant10Pin 3mmx3mmx1mm PartialTapeandReel SurfaceMountModule COMPONENTPACKAGING ANADIGICS, Inc. 141 Mount Bethel Road Warren, New Jersey 07059, U.S.A.
