AP602

AP602 Product Features • 800 – 2400 MHz • +35.7 dBm P1dB • -52 dBc ACLR @ ½W PAVG • -47 dBc IMD3 @ ½W PEP • 16% Efficiency @ ½W PAVG • Internal Active Bias High Dynamic Range 4W 28V HBT Amplifier Product Description The AP602 is a high dynamic range power amplifier in a lead-free/RoHS-compliant 5x6mm power DFN SMT package. The single stage amplifier has excellent backoff linearity, while being able to achieve high performance for 800-2400 MHz applications with up to +35.7 dBm of compressed 1dB power. Functional Diagram ACLR1 (dBc) The AP602 uses a high reliability, high voltage InGaP/GaAs HBT process technology. The device • Internal Temp Compensation incorporates proprietary bias circuitry to compensate for • Capable of handling 7:1 VSWR @ variations in linearity and current draw over temperature. The module does not require any negative bias voltage; an 28 Vcc, 2.14 GHz, 3W CW Pout internal active bias allows the AP602 to operate directly off a commonly used high voltage supply (typically +24 to • Lead-free/RoHS-compliant +32V). An added feature allows the quiescent bias to be 5x6 mm power DFN package adjusted externally to meet specific system requirements.

The reference designs shown in this datasheet have the device optimized for WCDMA ACLR performance at +25° C. Biasing for the amplifier is suggested at Vcc = +28V and Icq = 80 mA to achieve the best tradeoff in terms of efficiency and linearity. Increasing Icq will improve upon the device linearity (IMD3 and ACLR), but will decrease the efficiency performance slightly. More information is given in the other parts of this datasheet. 2.

Please note that for reliable operation, the evaluation board will have to be mounted to a much larger heat sink during operation and in laboratory environments to dissipate the power consumed by the device. The use of a convection fan is also recommended in laboratory environments. 2. The area around the module underneath the PCB should not contain any soldermask in order to maintain good RF grounding. 3. For proper and safe operation in the laboratory, the power-on sequencing is recommended. Evaluation Board Bias Procedure Following bias procedure is recommended to ensure proper functionality of AP602 in a laboratory environment. The sequencing is not required in the final system application. Bias. Vcc Vbias Vpd Voltage (V) +28 +5 +5 Turn-on Sequence: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 1. 2. 3. 4. Notes: 1. 2. 3. Attach input and output loads onto the evaluation board. Turn on power supply Vcc = +28V. Turn on power supply Vbias = +5V. At this point, the only current drawn by the device is leakage current (< 25µA). Turn on power supply Vpd = +5V. Power supply Vcc should now be drawing typical Icq = 80 mA. Turn on RF power. Turn off RF power. Turn off power supply Vpd = +5V. Turn off power supply Vbias = +5V. Turn off power supply Vcc = +28V. Icq can be adjusted with the resistor R2 from the Vpd (+5V) supply and the PIN_VPD (pin14) of the amplifier. Increasing R2 results in a lower Icq. Icq should not be increased above 160mA. Vpd is used as a reference for the internal active bias circuitry. It can be used to turn on/off the amplifier. Ipd depends on the Icq quiescent current setting. Ipd can be up to 4mA at a quiescent current setting of 160mA. Vbias should be maintained fixed at +5V. Ibias will change based on RF input power level. It can be up to 4mA on the AP602.

The recommended circuit configurations shown previously in this datasheet have the device operating with a 80 mA as the quiescent current (ICQ). This biasing level represents the best tradeoff in terms of linearity and efficiency. Lowering ICQ will improve upon the efficiency of the device, but degraded linearity. Increasing ICQ has nominal improvement upon the linearity, but will degrade the device’s efficiency. Measured data shown in the plots below represents the AP602 measured and configured for 2.14 GHz applications. It is expected that variation of the bias current for other frequency applications will produce similar performance results.
