PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AWT6308R meets the increasing demands
for higher efficiency and smaller footprint in CDMA
1X handsets. The package pinout was chosen to
enable handset manufacturers to switch from a
4 mm x 4 mm PA module with few layout changes
while reducing board area requirements by 44%.
The AWT6308R uses ANADIGICS’ exclusive InGaP-
Plus™ technology, which combines HBT and pHEMT
devices on the same die, to enable state-of-the-art
reliability, temperature stability, and ruggedness. The
AWT6308R is part of ANADIGICS’ High-Efficiency-
at-Low-Power (HELP™) family of CDMA power
amplifiers, which deliver low quiescent currents and
significantly greater efficiency without a costly external
DAC or DC-DC converter. Through selectable bias
modes, the AWT6308R achieves optimal efficiency
across different output power levels, specifically
at low- and mid-range power levels where the PA
typically operates, thereby dramatically increasing
handset talk-time and standby-time. Its built-in
voltage regulator eliminates the need for external
voltage regulation components. The 3 mm x 3 mm x
1 mm surface mount package incorporates matching
networks optimized for output power, efficiency, and
linearity in a 50 Ω system.
