The device is a self-contained 6mmx6mm module with 50 Ω input and output terminals. The device is designed for use as the final RF amplifier in GSM850, EGSM900, DCS and PCS handheld digital cellular equipment and other applications in the 824MHz to 849MHz, 880MHz to 915MHz, 1710MHz to 1785MHz and 1850MHz to 1910MHz bands. The RF3166 incorporates RFMD’s latest VBATT tracking circuit, which monitors battery voltage and prevents the power control loop from reaching saturation. The VBATT tracking circuit eliminates the need to monitor battery voltage, thereby minimizing switching transients. The RF3166 requires no external routing or external components, simplifying layout and reducing board space.
