Description
The SKY77773 Power Amplifier Module (PAM) is a fully matched 10-pad surface mount module
developed for Long Term Evolution (LTE) applications. This small and efficient module packs full
777 MHz–798 MHz bandwidth coverage into a single compact package. Because of high efficiencies
attained throughout the entire power range, the SKY77773 delivers unsurpassed talk-time
advantages. The SKY77773 meets the stringent spectral linearity requirements of Long Term
Evolution (LTE) data transmission with high power-added efficiency.
The Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) Microwave Monolithic Integrated Circuit (MMIC) contains all amplifier
active circuitry, including input and interstage matching circuits. The silicon CMOS support die,
providing precision biasing for the MMIC affords, a true MIPI RFFE control interface. Output match into
a 50-ohm load is realized off-chip within the module package to optimize efficiency and power
performance.
The SKY77773 is manufactured with Skyworks' InGaP GaAs Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT)
process which provides for all positive voltage DC supply operation and maintains high efficiency and
good linearity. While primary bias to the SKY77773 can be supplied directly from any suitable battery
with an output of 3.0 V to 4.5 V, optimal performance is obtained with VCC1 and VCC2 sourced from a
DC-DC power supply adjusted within 0.5 V to 3.4 V based on target output power levels. No external
supply side switch is needed as typical "off" leakage is a few microamperes with full primary voltage
supplied from the battery.
