The SPA series power amplifier radio-frequency integrated circuits (RFICs) offer cellular, PCS and 3G equipment designers a high level of linearity in a single IC. The GaAs HBT devices cover the 850 MHz, 1,950 MHz and 2,150 MHz frequency bands and serve as driver amps for base station and repeater applications. The devices are powered with a single 5V supply and offer typical third-order intercept points of +48 dBm. An on-chip active bias circuit provides consistent bias performance over temperature. The amps are well-suited for demanding wireless network system requirements and are housed in standard surface-mount SOIC-8 plastic packages with backside metallization. Price is $10.95 each/50,000.
