PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AWB7223 is a fully matched, Multi-Chip-Module
(MCM) designed for picocell, femtocell, and customer
premises equipment (CPE) applications. Its high
linearity and efficiency meet the extremely demanding
needs of small cell infrastructure architectures.
Designed for WCDMA, HSDPA, and LTE air interfaces
operating in the 1.930 GHz to 1.995 GHz band, the
AWB7223 delivers up to +27 dBm of WCDMA (64
DPCH) power with an ACPR better than -50 dBc. It
Vcc 1
operates from a convenient +4.5 V supply and provides
29 dB of gain. The device is manufactured using an
advanced InGaP HBT MMIC technology offering
state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability, and
ruggedness. The self-contained 7 mm x 7 mm x 1.3
mm surface mount package incorporates RF matching
networks optimized for output power, efficiency, and
linearity in a 50 Ω system.
