4.9-5.9 GHz High-Linearity Power Amplifier
SST11CP15E
Data Sheet
The SST11CP15E is a versatile power amplifier designed for 802.11a/n/ac
embedded applications and is based on the highly-reliable InGaP/GaAs HBT
technology. It is easily configured for high-linearity, high-efficiency applications
over a wide temperature range while operating over the 4.9-5.9 GHz frequency
band. The SST11CP15E has excellent linearity while meeting 802.11a spectrum
mask at 23 dBm with a 3.3V power supply, and at 24.5 dBm with a 5.0V supply.
It provides up to 18 dm, at 3% EVM with 802.11a 54 Mbps, and up to 16 dBm, at
1.8% EVM with 802.11ac 351 Mbps Modulation and 3.3V bias. The power ampli-
fier requires only a 4mA reference current for on/off control. It includes a VSWR/
temperature insensitive, linear power detector. The SST11CP15E is offered in a
12-contact UQFN package.
