Product Description
The RF6559 front end module is intended for use in 915MHz AMR solutions. The
RF6559 addresses the need for aggressive size reduction for a typical 915MHz
AMR front end design and greatly reduces the number of components outside the
RF6559 thus minimizing the footprint and assembly cost of the overall solution.
The RF6559 contains an integrated three stage power amplifier which provides
42dB of Gain and typical Power output of 28dBm. The RF6559 allows for Tx/Rx on
a single antenna via the 2 integrated SPDT switches. Tx filtering, built in power
detector and a two stage LNA which provides a typical 32dB of gain round out the
inside of this module. All the functionality ofthe RF6559 is packaged in a 28-pin,
6mm x 6mm laminate package with backside ground. Greatly minimizes next level
board space and allows for simplified integration.
