The RF2104 is a medium power amplifier IC. The device is manufactured on a low cost Silicon process, and has been designed for use as the final RF amplifier in UHF radio transmitters operating between 400MHz and 1000MHz. It may also be used as a driver amplifier in higher power applications. The device is packaged in a plastic quad-batwing 16-lead package, and is self-contained with the exception of the output matching network, power supply feed line, and bypass capacitors. It produces an output power level of up to 500mW (CW) at 3.6V. The device can be used in 3 cell battery applications. The maximum CW output at 3.6V is +27dBm. The unit has a total gain of 26dB, depending upon the output matching network.
