PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AWC6312R meets the increasing demands
for higher efficiency and smaller footprint in CDMA
1X handsets. The AWC6312R uses ANADIGICS’
exclusive InGaP-Plus™ technology, which combines
HBT and pHEMT devices on the same die, to enable
state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability, and
ruggedness. The AWC6312R is part of ANADIGICS’
High-Efficiency-at-Low-Power (HELP™) family of
CDMA power amplifiers, which deliver low quiescent
currents and significantly greater efficiency without
a costly external DAC or DC-DC converter. Through
selectable bias modes, the AWC6312R achieves
optimal efficiency across different output power
levels, specifically at low- and mid-range power levels
where the PA typically operates, thereby dramatically
increasing handset talk-time and standby-time. Its
built-in voltage regulator eliminates the need for
external voltage regulation components. The 3 mm x
3 mm x 1 mm surface mount package incorporates
matching networks optimized for output power,
efficiency, and linearity in a 50
Ω
system.
