ally diffused metal oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) RF
power field effect transistor (FET) suitable for per-
sonal communication service (PCS) (1930 MHz—
1990 MHz), global system for mobile communication
(GSM/EDGE), time division multiple access (TDMA),
and single-carrier or multicarrier class AB power
amplifier applications.

N-CDMA Features
Device can withstand 10:1 voltage standing wave
ratio (VSWR) at 28 Vdc, 1930 MHz, 30 W CW
output power.
Typical 2 carrier N-CDMA performance: VDD =
28 V, IDQ = 350 mA, f1 = 1958.75 MHz, f2 =
1961.25 MHz, IS-95 CDMA (pilot, sync, paging,
traffic codes 8—13). Peak/average (P/A) = 9.72 dB
at 0.01% probability on CCDF. 1.2288 MHz trans-
mission bandwidth (BW). Adjacent channel power
ratio (ACPR) measured over 30 kHz BW at f1 –
885 kHz and f2 + 885 kHz. Third-order intermodu-
lation distortion (IM3) measured over a
1.2288 MHz BW at f1 – 2.5 MHz and f2 + 2.5 MHz.

PEAK Devices
during all handling, assembly, and test operations. Agere
employs a human-body model (HBM), a machine model (MM),
and a charged-device model (CDM) qualification requirement in
order to determine ESD-susceptibility limits and protection
design evaluation. ESD voltage thresholds are dependent on the
circuit parameters used in each of the models, as defined by
JEDEC's JESD22-A114B (HBM), JESD22-A115A (MM), and
JESD22-C101A (CDM) standards.
EDGE Features
Typical EDGE performance, 1960 MHz, 26 V,
IDQ = 250 mA:
— Output power (POUT): 12 W typical.
— Power gain: 15.5 dB.
— Efficiency: 38% typical.
— Modulation spectrum:
Caution: MOS devices are susceptible to damage from elec-
trostatic charge. Reasonable precautions in han-
dling and packaging MOS devices should be
observed.
