PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The ANADIGICS AWL6152 WLAN Power Amplifier
is an easy to use module that delivers high levels
of linearity and efficiency for high data rate
applications. Designed for the 2.4 GHz WLAN
standards, it supports the 54 Mbps data rates
specified in IEEE 802.11g.
Requiring a single +3 V to +5 V supply and a
reference voltage input, the AWL6152 reduces
system power consumption by offering a low
leakage current while the amplifier is shut down.
No external circuits are required for RF impedance
matching, thus reducing component costs and
making it easy to incorporate the device into new
designs.
The AWL6152 is manufactured using an advanced
InGaP HBT technology that offers state-of-the-art
reliability, temperature stability and ruggedness. It
is offered in a 4mm x 4mm x 1.5mm surface mount
module optimized for a 50Ω system.
