Product Description
Spread-Spectrum System
The RF6100-1 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 IS-95/CDMA 2000 1X/AMPS handheld digital cellular equipment, spread-
spectrum systems, and other applications in the 824MHz to 849MHz band. The
RF6100-1 has a digital control line for low power applications to lower quiescent
current. The device is self-contained with 50Ω input and output that is matched to
obtain optimum power, efficiency and linearity. The module is a 4mmx4mm land
grid array with backside ground. The RF6100-1 is footprint compatible with industry
standard 4mmx4mm CDMA modules, and requires only one decoupling capacitor.
