SST11CP16-QXCE

5.1-5.9 GHz High-Linearity Power Amplifier SST11CP16 Data Sheet SST11CP16 is a versatile power amplifier based on the highly-reliable InGaP/ GaAs HBT technology. It is easily configured for high-linearity, high-efficiency applications, with superb power-added efficiency, while operating over operating over the 5.1-5.9 GHz frequency band. SST11CP16 has the excellent linearity required by the 802.11a/n/ac applications. SST11CP16 provides 19 dBm with less than 1.8% EVM using 802.11ac modulation, with 80 MHz bandwidths and 351 Mbps data rate. It meets 802.11a spectrum mask requirements at 25 dBm and 802.11n HT20 spectrum mask at 24.5 dBm. This power amplifier also features easy, board-level usage along with high-speed power-up/-down control through a single reference voltage pin. SST11CP16 is offered in a 16-contact XQFN package with 0.5mm maximum thickness.
