General Description
The XP1044 is a highly linear 2-stage power amplifier
capable of 18.5 dB of gain, 34 dBm of power at 1 dB
compression and is housed in an RoHS compliant 7x7mm
package. The XP1044 provides less than 2.5% EVM at 26
dBm output power with 802.16 OFDM signal and peak to
average ratio 9.17 dB. The input and output of the device
are internally pre-matched facilitating a simplified input
and output match. This product operates off an 8V
voltage supply and requires negative voltage which is
used for current control. The XP1044-QL is specifically
designed for WiMAX applications between 4.9 GHz and 5.9
GHz, and the performance can be shifted by adding
external matching components to cover applications
between 3.5 GHz and 5.0 GHz.

*Thermal resistance of stage 2 only
(1) Calculate maximum operating backside temperature using: Tmax =
167 °C – [Vd*Idd2*Rth]. Thermal resistance of the 1st stage is 2x Rth of
the output stage, and therefore Idd1 must not exceed �½ Idd2 for a
specific maximum temperature
Unless otherwise specified, the following specifications are guaranteed at room temperature in a Mimix test fixture.
