Power Amplifier Module
Product Brief
Description
Features
The ACPM-9017 is a fully matched 10-pin surface mount power
amplifier module developed for LTE Band 17 and Band 12. It
meets stringent linearity power up to LTE (MPR=0 dBm)
27.5 dBm. The 2 mm × 2.5 mm form-factor package is self
contained, and it incorporates 50-ohm input and output
matching networks.
Thin package (0.93 mm typical)
Excellent linearity in APT mode
Two-mode power control with Vmode
Compatible with the APT application
High efficiency at maximum output power
Ten-pin surface mounting package
Internal 50-ohm matching networks for both RF input and
output
The ACPM-9017 features CoolPAM circuit technology that
supports two power modes—low and high. The CoolPAM is a
stage bypass technology that enhances PAE (power added
efficiency) at low power range. The stage bypass feature
enhances PAE further at low output range, and it enables the
PA to have exceptionally low quiescent current. Without a
DC-DC converter, it dramatically saves average current
consumption, extends the talk time of mobiles, and prolongs a
battery life. It can be used with the APT (average power
tracking) operation to reduce the power consumption when
VCC1 is connected to the battery and VCC2 is connected to a
DC-DC converter, which adjusts the VCC2 voltage according to
the output power level.

Applications
Band 17 LTE
Band 12 LTE
Ordering Information
A directional coupler is integrated into the module, and both
coupling and isolation ports are available externally, which
support a daisy chain. The integrated coupler has excellent
coupler directivity, which minimizes the coupled output power
variation or delivered power variation caused by a load
mismatch from the antenna.
