MRF9060L REFERENCE DESIGN
Designed by: David Runton and John Kinney
This reference design is designed to demonstrate the RF
performance characteristics of the MRF9060L when applied to
the 865 - 895 MHz narrowband CDMA frequency band. The
reference design is tuned for performance at 60 watts average output power, VDS = 26 volts, and IDQ = 600 mA.
REFERENCE DESIGN LIBRARY TERMS
AND CONDITIONS
Freescale is pleased to make this reference design available for your use in development and testing of your own
product or products, without charge. The reference design
contains easy - to - copy, fully functional amplifier designs.
Where possible, it consists of “no tune” distributed element
matching circuits designed to be as small as possible, includes temperature compensated bias circuitry, and is designed to be used as “building blocks” for our customers.

HEATSINKING
When operating this fixture please provide adequate
heatsinking for the device. Excessive heating of the device will
prevent repeating of the included measurements.
NONLINEAR SIMULATION
To aid the design process and help reduce time to market
for our customers, Freescale provides device models for
several commercially available harmonic balance simulators.
Our model Library is available for all major computer platforms
supported by these simulators. For details on the RF model
library and supported harmonic balance simulators, go to the

Freescale has begun the transition of marking Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) with the Freescale Semiconductor
signature/logo. PCBs may have either Motorola or Freescale markings during the transition period. These changes will have
no impact on form, fit or function of the current product.
