RFMD launches 1W linear high-power amplifier
RF Micro Devices Inc of Greensboro, NC, USA has launched the RF5652 high-power amplifier, which addresses IEEE 802.11b/g/n WiFi (2.4-2.5GHz) for customer premises equipment (CPE) applications, as well as supporting IEEE 802.16e WiMAX (2.5-2.7GHz) CPE applications.
Applications also include picocells and femtocells, spread-spectrum and microwave multipoint distribution systems (MMDS), and LTE (long-term evolution).
The new module integrates a three-stage linear power amplifier with 30dBm (1W) linear power at PA output (with <3% EVM at 5V), along with a power detector, in a 5mm x 5mm QFN package. Gain is 34dB.
The RF5652 is now available in production quantities. Pricing begins at $6.15 each for 100-unit quantities.
