PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The SST13LP01 is a high-gain, high-performance, dual-
band power amplifier IC based on the highly-reliable
InGaP/GaAs HBT technology.
The SST13LP01 device can be easily configured for high-
power applications with superb power-added efficiency
while operating over the 802.11a/b/g frequency band for
U.S., European, and Japanese markets (2.4-2.5 GHz and
4.9-5.8 GHz.
The SST13LP01 has excellent linearity, typically ~4%
added EVM at 21 dBm output power which is essential for
54 Mbps 802.11g operation while meeting 802.11g spec-
trum mask at 23 dBm and 802.11b spectrum mask at 23
dBm. For 802.11a operation, the SST13LP01 has demon-
strated typically ~4% added EVM at 20 dBm output power
while meeting 802.11a spectrum mask at 22 dBm. The
SST13LP01 also has wide-range (>20 dB), temperature-
stable (~1 dB over 85°C), single-ended/differential power
detectors which lower users’ cost on power control.
The power amplifier IC also features easy board-level
usage along with high-speed power-up/down control.
Ultra-low reference current (total I_REF <3 mA) makes the
SST13LP01 controllable by an on/off switching signal
directly from the baseband chip. These features, coupled
with low operating current, make the SST13LP01 ideal
for the final stage power amplification in both battery-
powered 802.11a/b/g WLAN transmitter and access
point applications.
The SST13LP01 is offered in a 24-contact WQFN package.
