AWB7225 860 - 894 MHz Small-Cell Power Amplifier Module ADVANCED PRODUCT INFORMATION - Rev 0.1 FEATURES • InGaP HBT Technology • -47 dBc ACPR @ 610 MHz, +27 dBm • 29 dB Gain • High Efficiency • Low Transistor Junction Temperature • Matched for a 50 Ω System • Low Profile Miniature Surface Mount Package; RoHS Compliant • Multi-Carrier Capability APPLICATIONS • LTE, WCDMA, and HSDPA Air Interfaces 14 Pin 7 mm x 7 mm x 1.3 mm Surface Mount Module • Picocell, Femtocell, Home Nodes • Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The AWB7225 is a fully matched, Multi-Chip-Module (MCM) designed for picocell, femtocell, and customer premises equipment (CPE) applications. Consisting of two parallel path high linearity, high efficiency power amplifiers, the device meets the extremely demanding needs of small cell infrastructure architectures. Designed for LTE, WCDMA and HSDPA air interfaces operating in the 860 MHz to 894 MHz bands, the AWB7225 delivers up to +27 dBm of LTE (E-TM1.1) Vcc1 RF1 Input power through an external 90-degree hybrid coupler, with an ACPR of -47 dBc. The device operates from a convenient +4.5 V supply and provides 29 dB of RF gain. The AWB7225 is manufactured using an advanced InGaP HBT MMIC technology offering state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability, and ruggedness. Its 7 mm x 7 mm x 1.3 mm surface mount package incorporates RF matching networks optimized for output power, efficiency, and linearity in a 50 V system.
