Product Description
The RF6100-1 is a high-power, high-efficiency linear
amplifier module specifically designed for 3V handheld
systems. The device is manufactured on an advanced
third generation GaAs HBT process, and was designed
for use as the final RF amplifier in 3V IS-95/CDMA 2000
1X/AMPS handheld digital cellular equipment, spread-
spectrum systems, and other applications in the 824MHz
to 849MHz band. The RF6100-1 has a digital control line
for low power applications to lower quiescent current. The
device is self-contained with 50Ω input and output that is
matched to obtain optimum power, efficiency and linear-
ity. The module is a 4mmx4mm land grid array with back-
side ground. The RF6100-1 is footprint compatible with
industry standard 4mmx4mm CDMA modules, and
requires only one decoupling capacitor.
