This PA incorporates ANADIGICS’ HELP3TM technology to provide low power consumption without the need for an external voltage regulator or DC/DC Converter. The AWT6243 is manufactured on an advanced InGaP HBT MMIC technology offering state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability, and ruggedness. There are two operating modes for optimum efficiency at high and medium/low power output levels. A shutdown mode with low leakage current increases handset talk and standby-time. 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 lists the recommended modes of operation for various applications. VMODE2 is not necessary for this PA. To ensure proper performance, refer to all related Application Notes on the ANADIGICS web site: http://www.anadigics.com Shutdown Mode The power amplifier may be placed in a shutdown mode by applying logic low levels (see Operating Ranges table) to the VENABLE and VMODE1 voltages. Two operating modes are available to optimize current consumption. High Bias/High Power operating mode is for POUT levels > 16 dBm. At around 16 dBm output power, the PA should be “Mode Switched” to Medium/Low power mode for lowest quiescent current consumption. Bias Modes The power amplifier may be placed in either a Low Bias mode or a High Bias mode by applying the appropriate Table 5: Bias Control POUT LEVELS BIAS MODE VENABLE VMODE1 VCC VBATT UMTS - med/low power (Low Bias Mode) < +16 dBm Low +2.4 V +2.4 V 3.2 - 4.2 V > 3.2 V UMTS - high power (High Bias Mode) > +16 dBm High +2.4 V 0V 3.2 - 4.2 V > 3.2 V Optional lower VCC in low power mode < +6 dBm Low +2.4 V +2.4 V 1.5 V > 3.2 V - Shutdown 0V 0V 3.2 - 4.2 V > 3.2 V C3 1000 pF C4 2.2µF ceramic APPLICATION Shutdown VBATT VCC C5 2.2 µF C1 1000 pF 1 2 RF IN VMODE1 VENABLE C2 0.01µF VBATT VCC 10 RFIN RFOUT 9 8 3 VMODE2 (N/C) GND 4 VMODE1 GND 7 5 VENABLE GND 6 C6 68 pF GND at slug Figure 9: Evaluation Board Circuit Schematic 6 Data Sheet - Rev 2.5 09/2010 RF OUT AWT6243R PACKAGE OUTLINE Figure 10: M27 Package Outline - 10 Pin 3 mm x 3 mm x 1 mm Surface Mount Module 6243R 6243R 106 = TWO DIGIT WAFER NUMBER 106 Figure 11: Branding Specification - M27 Package Data Sheet - Rev 2.5 09/2010 7 AWT6243R COMPONENT PACKAGING Pin 1 Figure 12: Tape & Reel Packaging Table 6: Tape & Reel Dimensions 8 PACKAGE TYPE TAPE WIDTH POCKET PITCH REEL CAPACITY MAX REEL DIA 3 mm x 3 mm x 1 mm 12 mm 4 mm 2500 7" Data Sheet - Rev 2.5 09/2010 AWT6243R ORDERING INFORMATION ORDER NUMBER TEMPERATURE RANGE PACKAGE DESCRIPTION AWT6243RM27Q7 -20 oC to +90 oC RoHS Compliant 10 Pin 3 mm x 3 mm x 1 mm Tape and Reel, 2500 pieces per Reel Surface Mount Module AWT6243RM27P9 -20 oC to +90 oC RoHS Compliant 10 Pin 3 mm x 3 mm x 1 mm Partial Tape and Reel Surface Mount Module COMPONENT PACKAGING ANADIGICS, Inc. 141 Mount Bethel Road Warren, New Jersey 07059, U.S.A.
