RMBA19500A PCS1900 2 Watt Ga As MMIC Power Amplifier General Description Features The RMBA19500A is a highly linear Power Amplifier. The 2 Watt linear output power at 36 d Bc ACPR1 for CDMA two stage circuit uses our p HEMT process. It has been operation designed for use as a driver stage for PCS1900 base

stations, or as the output stage for Micro- and Pico-Cell OIP3 43 d Bm at 27 and 30 d Bm output

base stations. The amplifier has been optimized for high

linearity requirements for PCS operation. Small Signal Gain of > 30 d B

Notes: 1. Only under quienscent conditions—no RF applied. 2. V DD = 7.0V, T = 25°C. Part mounted on evaluation board with input and output matching to 50 3. 9 Channel Forward Link QPSK Source; 1.23 Mbps modulation rate. CDMA ACPR1 is measured using the ratio of the average power within the 1.23 MHz channel at band center to the average power within a 30 KHz bandwidth at an 885 KHz offset. Minimum CDMA output power is met with ACPR1 > 36 d Bc. 4. OIP3 specifications are achieved for power output levels of 27 and 30 d Bm per tone with tone spacing of 1.25 MHz at band-center with adjusted supply and bias conditions of Vdd = 6.5V and Idq Total = 625m A (see Note 5). 5. VG1,2 and VG3 must be individually adjusted to achieve IDQ1,2 and IDQ3. A single VGG bias supply adjusted to achieve IDQTOTAL = 625m A can be used with nearly equivalent performance. Values for IDQ1,2 and IDQ3 shown have been optimized for CDMA operation. IDQ1, 2 and IDQ3 (or IDQTOTAL) can be adjusted to optimize the linearity of the amplifier for other modulation systems.

The device requires external input and output matching to 50 as shown in Figure 3 and the Parts List.
