PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The ANADIGICS AWL6951 dual band power amplifier is The AWL6951 is manufactured using advanced InGaP
a high performance InGaP HBT power amplifier module HBT technology that offers state-of-the-art reliability,
designed for transmit applications in the 2.4-2.5 GHz temperature stability and ruggedness.

The power detectors are temperature compensated on
chip, enabling separate single-ended output voltages
for each band with excellent accuracy over a wide
range of operating temperatures. The PA is biased by
a single +3.3 V supply and consumes ultra-low current

2 GHz RF Input. ESD structures on this pin provide a DC path to ground. Avoid
applying DC voltage to this pin. RF is internally matched to 50  and AC coupled to
the input stage. Route RF traces as coplanar waveguide using adjacent ground pins.

RFIN 5G
5 GHz RF Input. AC coupled input stage internally matched to 50 . Route as coplanar
waveguide using adjacent ground pins. Although the input stage is AC coupled, a
