PRODUCT DESCRIPTION switches. This PA has built-in directional couplers for each band, with a common coupler output port CPL_OUT. These couplers provide high directivity and 23 dB Coupling. The 3 mm x 5 mm x 1 mm surface mount package incorporates matching networks optimized for output power, efficiency and linearity in a 50 Ω system. O • M47 Package 14 Pin 3 mm x 5 mm x 1 mm Surface Mount Module LE • • 5 TE • O BS AWU6615 addresses the demand for increased integration in dual-band handsets for WCDMA networks. The small footprint 3 mm x 5 mm x 1 mm surface- mount RoHS compliant package contains independent RF PA paths to ensure optimal performance in both frequency bands, while achieving a 25% PCB space savings compared with solutions requiring two single-band PAs. The package pinout was chosen to enable handset manufacturers to easily route bias to both power amplifiers and simplify control with common mode pins. The device is manufactured on an advanced InGaP HBT MMIC technology offering state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability, and ruggedness. The AWU6615 is part of ANADIGICS’ High-Efficiency-at-Low-Power (HELP™) family of WCDMA power amplifiers, which deliver low quiescent currents and significantly greater efficiency without the need of an external DC-DC converter. Through selectable bias modes, the AWU6615 achieves optimal efficiency, specifically at low- and mid-range power levels where the PA typically operates, thereby dramatically increasing handset talk-time. Its built-in voltage regulator eliminates the need for external 02/2012 VEN_CELL 1 14 GND Bias Control Voltage Regulation RFIN_CELL CPL 2 VMODE1 3 12 VCC VBATT 4 11 VCCA VMODE2 5 10 CPLOUT RFIN_PCS 6 VEN_PCS 7 13 RFOUT_CELL CPL Bias Control Voltage Regulation 9 GND 8 GND at Slug (pad) Figure 1: Block Diagram RFOUT_PCS AWU6615 VMODE1 CPLOUT LE TE VMODE2 Figure 2: Pinout PIN NAME DESCRIPTION VEN_CELL Enable Voltage for Cell Band BS 1 O Table 1: Pin Description 3 VMODE1 Mode Control Voltage for Cell and PCS Bands 4 VBATT Battery Voltage 5 VMODE2 Mode Control Voltage for Cell 6 RFIN_PCS RF Input for PCS Band 7 VEN_PCS Enable Voltage for PCS Band 8 RFOUT_PCS 9 GND 10 CPLOUT 11 VCCA 12 VCC O RFIN_CELL 13 14 2 RF Input for Cell Band 2 RF Output for PCS Band Ground Coupler Output Port Battery Voltage A Supply Voltage RFOUT_CELL RF Output for Cell Band GND Ground Data Sheet - Rev 2.6 02/2012 AWU6615 ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS Table 2: Absolute Minimum and Maximum Ratings PARAMETER MIN MAX UNIT Supply Voltage (VBATT, VCC, VCCA) 0 +5 V Mode Control Voltage (VMODE1, VMODE2) 0 +3.5 V Enable Voltage (VEN_CELL, VEN_PCS) 0 +3.5 V RF Input Power (PIN) - +10 dBm -40 +150 C Storage Temperature (TSTG) TE Stresses in excess of the absolute ratings may cause permanent damage.
