PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The AWT6331 is a new product in the revolutionary

ZeroIC™ PA family. The AWT6331 uses ANADIGICS’

exclusive InGaP-Plus™ technology, which combines

HBT and pHEMT devices on the same die, to enable

state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability, and

ruggedness.

The AWT6331 has a unique architecture with two RF

inputs. One input drives the power amplifier while the

other input drives an RF switch that bypasses the

power amplifier, going directly to the RF output. The

mode control logic selects the PA or the RF switch. In

RF switch mode, current consumption is less than 10



A, reducing the average current consumption 70%

more than a HELP2™ PA over the CDG profile. Its

integrated voltage regulator eliminates the need for

external components further reducing size and BOM

cost. The 3 mm x 3 mm x 1 mm surface mount package

incorporates matching networks optimized for output

power, efficiency, and linearity in a 50  system.
