The RF2162 is a high-power, high-efficiency linear ampli-
fier IC targeting 3V handheld systems. The device is
manufactured on an advanced Gallium Arsenide Hetero-
junction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) process, and has been
designed for use as the final RF amplifier in dual-mode
3V CDMA/AMPS hand-held digital cellular equipment,
spread-spectrum systems, and other applications in the
800MHz to 960MHz band. The RF2162 has an analog
bias control voltage to maximize efficiency. The device is
self-contained with 50Ω input and the output can be eas-
ily matched to obtain optimum power, efficiency, and lin-
earity characteristics. The device is packaged in a
compact 4mmx4mm, 16-pin, leadless chip carrier.
