Forecasting trimmer cellular handsets, the BGY294E quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE power amplifier module measures 6.6 mm x 6.6 mm, and delivers power efficiencies in the realm of 55% for GSM and 26% for EDGE. The module exploits a combination of InGaP GaAs, silicon BiCMOS, and passive component integration technologies that reportedly maximize circuit performance at a low cost. It is fully compatible with EGPRS-Class 12 and EDGE applications and can be used in handsets for the GSM/GPRS/EDGE and other wireless markets. For price, call NXP SEMICONDUCTORS, San Jose, CA.
