The device provides a transmit power amplifier (PA) capable of transmitting greater than +30 dBm of output power at 36 percent poweradded efficiency (PAE). The receive chain features a low-loss, single-pole, doublethrow (SPDT) switch and a high-performance low-noise amplifier (LNA) with a 2.5 dB noise figure (NF) and 12 dB receive gain. All functionality can be controlled using a three-wire interface. The SKY65383-11 can be placed in a deep “sleep” mode, which draws less than 1 μA of current. The device is mounted in a 28-pin, 6 x 6 mm Multi-Chip Module (MCM) package, which allows for a highly manufacturable lowcost solution. A block diagram of the SKY65383-11 is shown in Figure 1.The device package and pinout for the 28-pin MCM are shown in Figure 2. Signal pin assignments and functional pin descriptions are provided in Table 1. S3279 Figure 2.

An SPDT switch selects between the receive and transmit paths. The module has a sleep mode to minimize power consumption. The receive path contains two SPDT high-isolation switches and a high-performance LNA. Three digital input pins (CSD, CRX, and CTX) are used to select between transmit, receive, or shutdown mode. The SKY65383-11 operating modes are controlled by the three digital pins: CSD (pin 1), CTX (pin 2), and CRX (pin 3). The control logic is described in Table 2. Operation Mode Control Transmit Path The transmit path contains two SPDT high-isolation switches: one PA optimized for saturated performance and one integrated harmonic filter.

There is no damage to device with only one parameter set at the limit and all other parameters set at or below their nominal value. CAUTION: Although this device is designed to be as robust as possible, electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage this device. This device must be protected at all times from ESD. Static charges may easily produce potentials of several kilovolts on the human body or equipment, which can discharge without detection. Industry-standard ESD precautions should be used at all times.

Evaluation Board Description Package and Handling Information The SKY65383-11 Evaluation Board is used to test the performance of the SKY65383-11 T/R FEM. A typical application schematic diagram is provided in Figure 3. A photograph of the Evaluation Board is shown in Figure 4. Component values for the SKY65383-11 Evaluation Board are listed in Table 8. Since the device package is sensitive to moisture absorption, it is baked and vacuum packed before shipping. Instructions on the shipping container label regarding exposure to moisture after the container seal is broken must be followed. Otherwise, problems related to moisture absorption may occur when the part is subjected to high temperature during solder assembly. Package Dimensions The SKY65383-11 is rated to Moisture Sensitivity Level 3 (MSL3) at 260 C. It can be used for lead or lead-free soldering. For additional information, refer to Skyworks Application Note, PCB Design and SMT Assembly/Rework Guidelines for MCM-L Packages, document number 101752. The PCB layout footprint for the SKY65383-11 is provided in Figure 5. Package dimensions for the 28-pin MCM are shown in Figure 6, and tape and reel dimensions are provided in Figure 7. Care must be taken when attaching this product, whether it is done manually or in a production solder reflow environment.
