3.3GHz to 3.6GHz 2W POWER AMPLIFIER
Package: QFN, 6mmx6mm
Product Description
RFMD’s SZM-3166Z is a high linearity class AB Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) amplifier
housed in a low-cost surface-mountable plastic Q-FlexN multi-chip module package. This HBT
amplifier is made with InGaP on GaAs device technology and fabricated with MOCVD for an
ideal combination of low cost and high reliability. This product is specifically designed for
802.16 customer premises equipment (CPE) terminals in the 3.3GHz to 3.6GHz bands. It can
run from a 3V to 5.2V supply. The external output match and bias adjustability allows load line
optimization for other applications covering 3.5GHz to 3.8GHz. It features an output power
detector, on/off power control and high RF overdrive robustness. A 20dB step attenuator fea-
ture can be utilized by switching the second stage Power up/down control. This product fea-
tures a RoHS compliant and Green package with matte tin finish, designated by the ‘Z’ suffix.
