Function
Description
Interface Schematic
1RF IN
RF input. This input is DC coupled, so an external blocking capacitor is
required if this pin is connected to a DC path. An optimum match to 50
Ω is
obtained by providing an external series capacitor of 1.8pF and then a
shunt capacitor of 1.3pF; see the Application Schematic. Those values are
typical for 2450MHz; other values may be required for other frequencies.
2RF IN
Same as pin 1.
3PC
Power control pin. For obtaining maximum performance the voltage on this
pin can be used to set correct bias level. In a typical application this is
implemented by a feedback loop. The feedback can be based on the actual
supply current of the device, i.e. maintaining a fixed current level, or it can
be based on the RF output power level to maintain a fixed RF power level
(Automatic Level Control loop). A voltage of 0.5V or lower brings the part
into power down state.
4VCC
Power supply pin for the bias circuits. External low frequency bypass capac-
itors should be connected if no other low frequency decoupling is nearby.
5RF OUT
RF output and bias for the output stage. The power supply for the output
transistor needs to be supplied to this pin. This can be done through a
quarter-wavelength microstrip line that is RF grounded at the other end, or
through an RF inductor that supports the required DC currents. Optimum
load impedance is achieved by providing a shunt capacitor of 1.8pF and a
series capacitor of 3.3pF; see the Application Schematic. Those values are
typical for 2450MHz; other values may be required for other frequencies.
Since there are several output pins available, which are internally con-
nected, one pin can be used for connecting the bias, another for connect-
ing a (third) harmonic trap filter, and the other pins for the RF output.
6RF OUT
Same as pin 5.
7RF OUT
Same as pin 5.
8RF OUT
Same as pin 5.
Pkg
Base
GND
Ground connection. The backside of the package should be connected to
the ground plane through a short path, i.e., vias under the device may be
required.
Shaded lead is pin 1.
