Quad-Band GSM / EDGE and Broadband (Bands I, II, V, VIII)
WCDMA / HSDPA / HSUPA / HSPA+ Handsets
Applications
Description
• Quad-band cellular handsets:
- Class 4 GSM850 / EGSM900
- Class 1 DCS1800 / PCS1900
- Class E2 GSM850 / EGSM900 / DCS1800 / PCS1900
- Class 12 multi-slot EGPRS
- Multi-band 3G handsets
- Broadband WCDMA/HSDPA/HSUPA-modulated handsets –
Bands I, II, V, VIII
Skyworks SKY77605 is a hybrid multimode, multiband Power
Amplifier Module (PAM) that supports 2.5G and 3G handsets, and
operates efficiently in GSM, EGPRS, EDGE and WCDMA modes.
The PAM consists of a GSM800/EGSM900 PA block, a
DCS1800/PCS1900 PA block, separate blocks for WCDMA
operating in low / high bands, RF I/O ports internally matched to
50 Ω to reduce the number of external components, a logic
control block for multiple power control levels and band enable
functions in both cellular and UMTS. Extremely low leakage
current maximizes handset standby time.
Features
• Hybrid module architecture, w/ separate GSM, WCDMA paths
• 50 Ω I/O impedances, integrated DC blocking all ports
• Separate single-ended I/O for GSM and WCDMA
GSM/EDGE: The SKY77605 uses a new compact architecture to
support GSM850, EGSM900, DCS1800 and PCS1900 bands. The
PAM also supports 2.5G Class 12 Enhanced General Packet Radio
Service (EGPRS) multi-slot operation and EDGE linear modulation.
• Integrated coupler w/ coupled and isolated ports for 3G band
operation
• CMOS-compatible three-line logic input, HB enable / LB enable
• Both 3G VCC stages can attach to battery or buck DC/DC
WCDMA: The SKY77605 uses Load Insensitive Power Amplifier
(LIPA) circuitry to support WCDMA, High-Speed Downlink Packet
Access (HSDPA), and High-Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA)
modulations at moderate antenna Voltage Standing-Wave Ratio
(VSWR). This functionality covers multiple bands for 3GPP,
including bands I, II, V, VIII, and operates at different power
modes.
• Ultra-compact low profile package
- 5 mm x 7 mm x 0.9 mm
- 24-pad configuration
• 2.5G Features
- GPRS Class 12 multi-slot operation
- Three level RF Pout control using digital logic interface.
- Linear PA with bias optimization for efficiency/linearity
tradeoff in 8PSK mode
The module is fully controllable via three line logic and band
enable interfaces. The InGaP/GaAs die and passive components
are mounted on a multi-layer laminate substrate and the
assembly encapsulated with plastic overmold. The SKY77605
Surface-Mounted Technology (SMT) package offers for a highly
manufacturable, low-cost solution.
• 3G Features
- WCDMA mode supports output power, bandwidth for bands
I, II, V, VIII
- Two level POUT RF POUT control using digital logic interface
- Linear balanced with bias optimization, low/high mode gain
switch for best efficiency / linearity trade-off
