Features
The ACPM-7392 is a fully matched 10-pin surface mount
module developed for UMTS Band4 and Band9. This power amplifier module operates in the 1710-1785MHz bandwidth. The ACPM-7392 meets stringent UMTS linearity
requirements up to 28.4dBm output power in band4 and
28.0dBm output power in band9. The 4mmx4mm form
factor package is self contained, incorporating 50ohm input and output matching networks
• Thin Package (0.9mm typ)
The ACPM-7392 features 5th generation of CoolPAM circuit technology which supports 3 power modes – bypass,
mid and high power modes. The CoolPAM is stage bypass
technology enhancing PAE (power added efficiency) at
low and medium power range. Active bypass feature is
added to 5th generation to enhance PAE further at low
output range. This helps to extend talk time.

CoolPAM
Average current & Talk time
Avago Technologies’ CoolPAM is stage-bypass PA technology which saves more power compared with conventional PA. With this technology, the ACPM-7392 has very low
quiescent current, and efficiencies at low and medium
output power ranges are high.
Average current consumed by PA can be calculated by
summing up current at each output power weighted with
probability. So it is expressed with integration of multiplication of current and probability at each output power.
The ACPM-7392 has internal bias circuit, which removes
the need for external constant voltage source (LDO). PA
on/off is controlled by Ven. This is digitally control pin.
3-mode power control with two mode control pins
The ACPM-7392 supports three power modes ( bypass
power mode/mid power mode/high power mode) with
two mode control pins (Vmode and Vbp). This control
scheme enables the ACPM-7392 to save power consumption more, which accordingly gives extended talk time.
PDF (probability density function) showing distribution
of output power of mobile in real field gives motivation
for stage-bypass PA. Output power is less than 16dBm for
most of operating time (during talking), so it is important
to save power consumption at low and medium output
power ranges.
Talk time is extended more as average current consumption is lowered.
Mode control pins
Vmode and Vbp are digitally controlled by baseband and
they control the operating mode of the PA. The operating
logic table is summarized on the page 2. These pins do not
require constant voltage for interface. .

Icc Comparison of CP5 to CP4 (Avago CoolPAM)
The 5th generation of CoolPAM technology, ACPM-7392
can dramatically reduce Icc down to 3mA at bypass mode,
which improves overall talk time and battery usage time
of handset more compared with the CP4.
Application on mobile phone board
PCB layout and part placement on phone board
Application example in mobile is shown below. C4 and C5
should be placed close to pin1 and pin10. Bypass cap C1,
C2 and C3 should be also placed nearby from pin5, pin4
and pin3, respectively. The length of post-PA transmission
line should be minimized to reduce line loss.

Peripheral Circuits
1. To prevent voltage drop, make the bias lines as wide as
possible (Pink line).
C8

L1
RF Out
2. Use many via holes to fence off PA RF input and output
traces for better isolation. Output signal of the PA
should be isolated from input signal and the receive
signal. Output signal should not be fed into PA input.
(Green line)
3. Use via holes to connect outer ground plates to internal
ground planes. They help heat spread out more easily
and accordingly the board temperature can be lowered.
They also help to improve RF stability (Yellow square).
4. PA which has a ground slug requires many via holes
which go through all the layers (Red square).
Metallization
PCB Design Guidelines
0.1
0.6
The recommended PCB land pattern is shown in figures on the left side. The substrate is coated with solder
mask between the I/O and conductive paddle to protect
the gold pads from short circuit that is caused by solder
bleeding/bridging.
0.5
0.4
Stencil Design Guidelines
A properly designed solder screen or stencil is required
to ensure optimum amount of solder paste is deposited
onto the PCB pads.
0.85
The recommended stencil layout is shown here. Reducing
the stencil opening can potentially generate more voids.
On the other hand, stencil openings larger than 100% will
lead to excessive solder paste smear or bridging across
the I/O pads or conductive paddle to adjacent I/O pads.
Considering the fact that solder paste thickness will directly affect the quality of the solder joint, a good choice
is to use laser cut stencil composed of 0.100mm(4mils) or
0.127mm(5mils) thick stainless steel which is capable of
producing the required fine stencil outline.

Handling and Storage
ESD (Electrostatic Discharge)
Electrostatic discharge occurs naturally in the environment. With the increase in voltage potential, the outlet of
neutralization or discharge will be sought. If the acquired
discharge route is through a semiconductor device, destructive damage will result.
ESD countermeasure methods should be developed and
used to control potential ESD damage during handling in
a factory environment at each manufacturing site.
MSL (Moisture Sensitivity Level)
Plastic encapsulated surface mount package is sensitive
to damage induced by absorbed moisture and temperature.
Avago Technologies follows JEDEC Standard J-STD 020B.
Each component and package type is classified for moisture sensitivity by soaking a known dry package at vari-
ous temperatures and relative humidity, and times. After
soak, the components are subjected to three consecutive
simulated reflows.
The out of bag exposure time maximum limits are determined by the classification test describe below which
corresponds to a MSL classification level 6 to 1 according
to the JEDEC standard IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020B and J-STD033.
ACPM-7392 is MSL3. Thus, according to the J-STD-033
p.11 the maximum Manufacturers Exposure Time (MET)
for this part is 168 hours. After this time period, the part
would need to be removed from the reel, de-taped and
then re-baked. MSL classification reflow temperature for
the ACPM-7392 is targeted at 260° +0/-5°. Figure and table on next page show typical SMT profile for maximum
temperature of 260 +0/-5°.

Storage Condition
Baking of Populated Boards
Packages described in this document must be stored
in sealed moisture barrier, antistatic bags. Shelf life in a
sealed moisture barrier bag is 12 months at <40° and 90%
relative humidity (RH) J-STD-033 p.7.
Some SMD packages and board materials are not able to
withstand long duration bakes at 125°. Examples of this
are some FR-4 materials, which cannot withstand a 24
hr bake at 125°. Batteries and electrolytic capacitors are
also temperature sensitive. With component and board
temperature restrictions in mind, choose a bake temperature from Table 4-1 in J-STD 033; then determine the appropriate bake duration based on the component to be
removed. For additional considerations see IPC-7711 andIPC-7721.
Out-of-Bag Time Duration
After unpacking the device must be soldered to the PCB
within 168 hours as listed in the J-STD-020B p.11 with factory conditions <30° and 60% RH.
Baking
It is not necessary to re-bake the part if both conditions
(storage conditions and out-of bag conditions) have been
satisfied. Baking must be done if at least one of the conditions above have not been satisfied. The baking conditions are 125° for 12 hours J-STD-033 p.8.
CAUTION
Tape and reel materials typically cannot be baked at the
temperature described above. If out-of-bag exposure
time is exceeded, parts must be baked for a longer time
at low temperatures, or the parts must be de-reeled, detaped, re-baked and then put back on tape and reel. (See
moisture sensitive warning label on each shipping bag for
information of baking).
Board Rework
Component Removal, Rework and Remount
If a component is to be removed from the board, it is
recommended that localized heating be used and the
maximum body temperatures of any surface mount component on the board not exceed 200°. This method will
minimize moisture related component damage. If any
component temperature exceeds 200°, the board must
be baked dry per 4-2 prior to rework and/or component
removal. Component temperatures shall be measured at
the top center of the package body. Any SMD packages
that have not exceeded their floor life can be exposed to
a maximum body temperature as high as their specified
maximum reflow temperature.
Removal for Failure Analysis
Not following the above requirements may cause moisture/reflow damage that could hinder or completely prevent the determination of the original failure mechanism.

Derating due to Factory Environmental Conditions
Factory floor life exposures for SMD packages removed
from the dry bags will be a function of the ambient environmental conditions. A safe, yet conservative, handling
approach is to expose the SMD packages only up to the
maximum time limits for each moisture sensitivity level
as shown in next table. This approach, however, does not
work if the factory humidity or temperature is greater
than the testing conditions of 30°/60% RH. A solution for
addressing this problem is to derate the exposure times
based on the knowledge of moisture diffusion in the
component package materials ref. JESD22-A120). Recommended equivalent total floor life exposures can be estimated for a range of humidities and temperatures based
on the nominal plastic thickness for each device.
Table on next page lists equivalent derated floor lives for
humidities ranging from 20-90% RH for three temperature, 20°, 25°, and 30°.
Table on next page is applicable to SMDs molded with
novolac, biphenyl or multifunctional epoxy mold compounds. The following assumptions were used in calculating this table:
1. Activation Energy for diffusion = 0.35eV (smallest
known value).
2. For ≤60% RH, use Diffusivity = 0.121exp ( -0.35eV/kT)
mm2/s (this used smallest known Diffusivity @ 30°).
3. For >60% RH, use Diffusivity = 1.320exp ( -0.35eV/kT)
mm2/s (this used largest known Diffusivity @ 30°).
Recommended Equivalent Total Floor Life (days) @ 20°, 25° & 30°, 35°
For ICs with Novolac, Biphenyl and Multifunctional Epoxies (Reflow at same temperature at which the component was classified)
