PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The ANADIGICS AWL9565 is a high performance
InGaP HBT FEIC that incorporates a 5 GHz power
amplifier, 5 GHz SP2T RF Switch and 2 GHz SP3T
RF switch. The FEIC is designed for WLAN transmit
and receive applications in the 2.412-2.484 and
5.15-5.85 GHz bands. Matched to 50 Ohms and DC
blocked at all RF inputs and outputs, the part requires
no additional RF matching components off-chip. The
antenna ports are switched between WLAN transmit,
WLAN receive, Bluetooth, and simultaneous WLAN
and Bluetooth paths with low loss RF switches. The
PA exhibits unparalleled linearity and efficiency for
IEEE 802.11a/n WLAN systems under the toughest
signal configurations within the standard.
An on-chip power detector is incorporated in 5 GHz
transmit path of the FEIC. All control circuits operate
with +1.8 V CMOS logic and consume ultra-low current
in the OFF mode.
