RF6100-2 Linear Amplifier
RF Micro Devices®
3V 900 MHz
Linear Amplifier
The RF6100-2 is a high-power, high-efficiency linear amplifier
Features
module specifically designed for 3V handheld systems. The
➔ Advanced third-generation GaAs HBT process
device is manufactured on an advanced third-generation
Ω internally matched package
➔ 4x4mm 50Ω
GaAs HBT process and has been designed for use as the final
RF amplifier in 3V IS-95/CDMA 2000 1x/AMPS handheld
➔ 28 dBm linear output power
digital cellular equipment, spread-spectrum systems and other
➔ 40% power added efficiency
applications in the 824 MHz to 849 MHz band. The RF6100-2
➔ 54% AMPS power added efficiency
has a digital control line for low power applications in order
➔ -50 dBc adjacent channel power rejection
to lower quiescent current. The device is self-contained with
50Ω input and output that is matched to obtain optimum
➔ 3V regulated voltage
power, efficiency and linearity. The module is an ultra-small
➔ 55mA quiescent current (up to 28 dBm)
4x4mm land grid array with backside ground. The RF6100-2
➔ 29 dB linear gain
is footprint compatible with industry standard 4x4mm CDMA
modules and requires only one decoupling capacitor.
Typical Applications
➔ 3V CDMA/AMPS cellular handsets
➔ 3V CDMA 2000 1x cellular handsets
➔ Spread spectrum systems
