Product Description
The RF3160 is a high-power, high-efficiency power ampli-
fier module. The device is self-contained with 50Ω input
and output terminals. The device is manufactured on an
advanced Gallium Arsenide Heterojunction Bipolar Tran-
sistor (HBT) process, and has been designed for use as
the final RF amplifier in GSM/DCS handheld digital cellu-
lar equipment and other applications in the 880MHz to
915MHz and 1710MHz to 1785MHz bands. On-board
power control provides over 70dB of control range with an
analog voltage input, and provides power down with a
logic "low" for standby operation. The device is packaged
in an ultra-small (9mmx11mm) LCC, minimizing the
required board space.
