DESCRIPTION
The µPC8172TB is a silicon monolithic integrated circuit designed as frequency up-converter for wireless transceiver transmitter stage. This IC is manufactured using NEC’s 30 GHz fmax. UHS0 (Ultra High Speed Process) silicon bipolar process.
This IC is as same circuit current as conventional µPC8106TB, but operates at higher frequency, higher gain and lower distortion. Consequently this IC is suitable for mobile communications.

FEATURES
• Recommended operating frequency : fRFout = 0.8 to 2.5 GHz
• Higher IP3 : CG = 9.5 dB TYP., OIP3 = +7.5 dBm TYP. @ fRFout = 0.9 GH
• High-density surface mounting : 6-pin super minimold package
• Supply voltage : VCC = 2.7 to 3.3 V

APPLICATIONS
• PCS1900M
• 2.4 GHz band transmitter/receiver system (wireless LAN etc.)
