The RF3117 is a high-power, high-efficiency linear amplifier module targeting 3V handheld systems. The device is manufactured on an advanced Gallium Arsenide Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) process, and has been designed for use as the final RF amplifier in dual-mode 3V CDMA/AMPS handheld digital cellular equipment, spread-spectrum systems, and other applications in the 824MHz to 849MHz band. The RF3117 has a digital control line for low power application to reduce the current drain. The device is self-contained with 50 input and output that is matched to obtain optimum power, efficiency, and linearity characteristics. The module is an ultra-small 6mmx6mm land grid array with backside ground.
