Product Description
RFMD’s SZP-5026Z is a high-linearity, single-stage, class AB Heterojunction Bipolar
Transistor (HBT) power amplifier. It is designed with InGaP-on-GaAs device technol-
ogy and fabricated with MOCVD for an ideal combination of low cost and high reli-
ability. This product is specifically designed for use as a driver or final stage power
amp for 802.16 equipment in the 4.9GHz to 5.9GHz bands. It is pre-matched on
both ports to simplify external application circuit design. It features an input power
detector, on/off power control, ESD protection, excellent overall robustness, and a
hand reworkable and thermally enhanced surface-mount SOF-26 package.
