5.1-5.9 GHz High-Linearity Power Amplifier
SST11CP16
Data Sheet
SST11CP16 is a versatile power amplifier based on the highly-reliable InGaP/
GaAs HBT technology. It is easily configured for high-linearity, high-efficiency
applications, with superb power-added efficiency, while operating over operating
over the 5.1-5.9 GHz frequency band. SST11CP16 has the excellent linearity
required by the 802.11a/n/ac applications. SST11CP16 provides 19 dBm with
less than 1.8% EVM using 802.11ac modulation, with 80 MHz bandwidths and
351 Mbps data rate. It meets 802.11a spectrum mask requirements at 25 dBm
and 802.11n HT20 spectrum mask at 24.5 dBm. This power amplifier also fea-
tures easy, board-level usage along with high-speed power-up/-down control
through a single reference voltage pin. SST11CP16 is offered in a 16-contact
XQFN package with 0.5mm maximum thickness.
