Product Description
Spread-Spectrum Systems
The RF3165 is a high-power, high-efficiency linear amplifier module specifically
designed for 3V handheld systems. The device is manufactured on an advanced
third generation GaAs HBT process, and was designed for use as the final RF ampli-
fier in 3V W-CDMA handheld digital cellular equipment, spread-spectrum systems,
and other applications in the 1710MHz to 1785MHz band (Band 3). The RF3165
has a digital control line for low power applications to lower quiescent current. The
RF3165 is assembled in at 16-pin, 3mmx3mm, QFN package.
