MW6IC2015NBR1
MW6IC2015GNBR1
The MW6IC2015N wideband integrated circuit is designed for base station
applications. It uses Freescale’s newest High Voltage (26 to 32 Volts) LDMOS
IC technology and integrates a multi - stage structure. Its wideband on - chip
design makes it usable from 1805 to 1990 MHz. The linearity performances
1805 - 1990 MHz, 15 W, 26 V
cover all modulation formats for cellular applications: GSM, GSM EDGE, PHS,
GSM/GSM EDGE, CDMA
TDMA, CDMA, W - CDMA and TD - SCDMA.
