ALM-42216-TR2G

ALM-42216 (3.3 – 5)V Linear Wireless Data Power Amplifier for (2.3 – 2.7)GHz Operation Data Sheet Description Features Avago Technologies’ ALM-42216 is a fully-matched Power amplifier module for use in the (2.3-2.7)GHz band. High linear output power at 3.3V is achieved through the use of Avago Technologies’ proprietary 0.25um GaAs Enhancement-mode pHEMT process. It is housed in a miniature 5.0 x 5.0 x 1.1mm MCOB module. It includes shutdown and switchable gain functions. A detector is also included onchip. The compact footprint and low profile coupled with high gain and high efficiency make the ALM-42216 an ideal choice as a power amplifier for IEEE 802.16 (Wimax) and WLL applications. • High Efficiency of 17.4% at low 3.3V supply voltage Applications • High linearity amplifier for IEEE 802.16 mobile and fixed terminal amplifier • High gain : 30dB • High linearity performance : 23.5dBm at 2.5% EVM (64 QAM ¾ FEC rate OFDMA). • Broadband Fully-matched 50 Ohm input and output impedances • >45dBc 2nd harmonic attenuation • Built-in detector and shutdown switches • Switchable gain : 20 dB attenuation using one single CMOS compatible switch pin • GaAs E-pHEMT Technology[1] • Low cost small package size: 5.0 x 5.0 x 1.1 mm3 • WLL amplifier • Useable at 5V supplies for higher output power Component Image Specifications 5.0 x 5.0 x 1.1 mm3 MCOB 2.5GHz; 3.3V, Iqtotal=240 mA (typ) • 30 dB Gain • 23.5dBm linear Pout (2.5% EVM, 64QAM OFDMA) 42216 WWYY XXXX Top View Pin Configuration Notes: Package marking provides orientation and identification “42216” = Device part number “WWYY” = Work week and Year “XXXX” = Assembly lot number • 25.5dBm linear Pout (2.5% EVM, 64QAM OFDMA) @ Vdd=5V • P1dB : 30dBm • Detector range : 10dB (0.5V – 2.5V) • 20 dB switchable gain attenuation • Shutdown current : < 20uA Notes: 1. Enhancement mode technology employs positive Vgs, thereby eliminating the need of negative gate voltage associated with conventional depletion mode devices.

Application circuit in demoboard Notes: 1. In normal gain mode operation, Vbyp = 0V. Vc is a bias pin that is used to set the bias conditions to the 3 internal gain stages of the PA. 2. Typical quiescent current distribution with Vdd1=Vdd2=Vdd3 = 3.3V, Vbyp = 0V, Vc = 2.45V is : a. Idd1 = 18 mA b. Idd2 = 75 mA c. Idd3 = 130 mA d. I_Vddbias = 17mA 3. Bypass mode is enabled by setting Vbyp pin to 3.3V. This condition overrides the normal high gain mode operation and bypasses the first gain stage, regardless of the voltage at Vc1 pin. 4. Modulated signal measurements are made with Agilent 89600 VSA and Agilent ESG4438C signal generator with IEEE 802.16e option using the following test conditions : - Signal format : IEEE 802.16e OFDMA, ¾ rate FEC - Modulation : 64-QAM - Numher of Subcarriers : 840 - Modulation bandwidth : 10 MHz - Downlink ratio : 50% Residual distortion of signal generator : (0.6-0.8)%. This distortion is included in the overall EVM data in the datasheet. 5. Typical operating voltages and currents : a. Normal gain mode : Vdd1 = Vdd2 = Vdd3 = Vddbias = 3.3V. Vc = 2.45V. Vbyp = 0V. Iqtotal = 240 mA. b. Bypass mode : Vdd1 = Vdd2 = Vdd3 = Vddbias = 3.3V. Vc = 2.45V. Vbyp = 3.3V. Iqtotal = 240 mA.  S21, S11, S22 / dB Figure 4.
