4 X 4 mm WCDMA
3.5V POWER AMPLIFIER MODULE
Description
Features
The ECM060 is a 10 pin 4 X 4 mm power amplifier module
at 3.5V Vcc with high efficiency. This device was developed using EiC’s proprietary InGaP Gallium Arsenide
Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) process. It is optimized for WCDMA in the 1.92 GHz to 1.98 GHz band. It
operates from a positive voltage (3.2 - 4.2V Vcc) and
includes a power-down feature. The input and output are
both matched to 50Ω internally. It is housed in a 4 X 4 mm
Land Grid Array package with 10 pins
4 X 4 mm LGA Module with 10 Pins
Single 3.5V Supply for 3-Cell Ni or Li-Ion Battery
Power-down activated when Vref pin <1V
27.0 dBm WCDMA Power with 43% Efficiency
50mA Typical Quiescent Current, no switch required
High Reliability InGaP Design

DESCRIPTION
PIN 1 connects to the driver stage HBT collector.
RF input port connects to internally matched 50 ohm circuit.
No Connection
Ref. Voltage for the bias circuit. No significant amplifier current is drawn until
Vref reaches approximately 2.5V.
Vcc2 connects to the power amplifier stage HBT collector.
RF out is internally matched to 50 ohms and expects a 50 ohm load impedance.
Ground
Ground. This ground also serves as heat sink and must connect well to the PCB
RF ground and heat sink.
All supply pins may be connected together at the supply.
