Preliminary
Product Description
SZM-2166Z
Sirenza Microdevices’ SZM-2166Z is a high linearity class AB
Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) amplifier housed in a
low-cost surface-mountable plastic Q-FlexN multi-chip module
package. This HBT amplifier is made with InGaP on GaAs
device technology and fabricated with MOCVD for an ideal
combination of low cost and high reliability.
2.3-2.7GHz 2W Power Amplifier
RoHS Compliant
Pb
& Green Package
This product is specifically designed for 802.16 customer
premise equipment (CPE) terminals in the 2.3-2.7 GHz bands.
It can run from a 3V to 6V supply. The external output match
and bias adjustability allows load line optimization for other
applications or over narrower bands. It features an output
power detector, on/off power control and high RF overdrive
robustness. A 20dB step attenuator feature can be utilized by
switching the second stage Power up/down control. This prod-
uct features a RoHS compliant and Green package with matte
tin finish, designated by the ‘Z’ suffix.
