PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

operating in Band Class 1 and Band Class 14. This

PA incorporates ANADIGICS’ HELPTM technology to

deliver exceptional efficiency at low power levels and

low quiescent current without the need for external

voltage regulators or converters. The device is

manufactured using advanced InGaP HBT technology

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

and ruggedness. Two selectable bias modes that

optimize efficiency for different output power levels and

a shutdown mode with low leakage current increase

handset talk and standby time. A “daisy chainable”

directional coupler is integrated in the module, thus

eliminating the need of an external coupler. The

self-contained 3 mm x 3 mm x 1 mm surface mount

package incorporates matching networks optimized for

output power, efficiency, and linearity in a 50 Ω system.
