PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AWU6608 HELP3
TM
PA is a 3rd generation WCDMA
product for UMTS handsets. This PA incorporates
ANADIGICS’ HELP3
TM
technology to provide low
power consumption without the need for an external
voltage regulator. A “daisy chainable” directional
coupler is integrated in the module thus eliminating the
need of external couplers. The device is manufactured
on an advanced InGaP HBT MMIC technology offering
state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability, and
ruggedness. There are two selectable bias modes
that optimize efficiency for different output power
levels, and a shutdown mode with low leakage current,
which increases handset talk and standby time. The
self-contained 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.
