supply
+26dBm of P1dB and up to 25dB
power gain in the 5.15 - 5.85GHz
frequency range with a simple output
matching capacitor pair.
LX5506B is available in a 16-pin
3mmx3mm micro-lead package (MLP).
The compact footprint, low profile, and
excellent thermal capability of the MLP
package makes the LX5506B an ideal
solution
for
power amplifier requirements for IEEE
802.11a, and HiperLAN2 portable
WLAN applications.
The LX5506B is a power amplifier
optimized for the FCC Unlicensed
National Information Infrastructure
(U-NII) band, HyperLAN2 and Japan
WLAN applications in the 4.9-5.85
GHz frequency range. The PA is
implemented
as
monolithic
microwave
circuit (MMIC) with active bias, on-
chip input matching and output pre-
matching. It also features an on-chip
output power detector to help reduce
BOM cost and PCB board space for
system implementations. The device is
manufactured with an InGaP/GaAs
Heterojunction
Bipolar
(HBT) IC process (MOCVD). It
operates with a single positive voltage
a
three-stage
integrated
Transistor
of
3.3V
(nominal),
with
broadband,
high-gain
