Rev A4 DS080221 RF3809 Theory of Operation and Application Information RF3809 design accommodates use in a variety of applications: • Linear driver from 450MHz to 2500MHz • 2nd/3rd stage high linearity LNA, with noise figure in the 3dB to 4dB range from 800MHz to 2200MHz • High efficiency (>50%) output stage for non-linear applications Nominal data sheet shows specification for VCC =VBIAS =VREF =8V. RF3809 can easily be configured for 5V operation, with a simple bias resistor change at VREF.. “Bias Table” on page 5 shows resistor values for VCC =VBIAS =VREF =5V. Generally speaking, 5V data will compare to that for 8V as follows: • 3dB to 3.5dB reduction in OP1dB • 0.4dB to 0.5dB increase in small signal gain For operation at other than 5V, bias R can be calculated as follows (VCC =VBIAS =VREF =5V is used here to illustrate, operation at different voltage is determined with same methodology). 1. Use nominal 8V case as a starting point: VCC =VBIAS =VREF =8V, IREF =15mA, ICQ =258mA. Target condition will be to achieve same ICQ with VCC =VBIAS =VREF =5V. 2. Using evaluation board with separate lab supplies on (VCC/VBIAS) and (VREF), set VCC/VBIAS =5V, VREF =8V. IREF is maintained at 15mA, and ICQ drops from nominal value of 258mA. 3. VREF can then be increased >8V until ICQ is restored. IREF increase to 23mA is required (as seen in “Bias Table” on page 5). 4. At this point, pin voltage at VREF is calculated (or measured with DVM): VPIN =VREF at eval board input – IREF *bias R=10.8– 0.023*300=3.9V. 5. Next, calculate new bias R for VREF =5V: Bias R=(5–3.9)/0.023=47.8 Ω. See “Bias Table” on page 5, standard resistor value=47 Ω is called out. In this way, bias R can be calculated for any VCC =VBIAS =VREF configuration. The maximum IREF limit for RF3809=30mA. Junction-to-case thermal resistance (RTH_JC) is shown versus output power in the graph section of this data sheet. The graph was generated with nominal VCC =VBIAS =VREF =8V, IREF =15mA, where ambient temperature=85 °C. Using this curve along with operating condition, junction temperature can be calculated. Resultant TJ for this case yields MTTF ≥ 100 years. Standard RF3809 evaluation boards are matched for high efficiency at OP1dB. To ensure reliability for operation at high power, output match achieving equivalent or better efficiency on system board should be the goal. Typical s-parameter responses for each evaluation board are shown within the data sheet. These boards were matched with two specifications in mind: • Output load impedance set for optimum OIP3/ACP (Adjacent Channel Power for commonly used modulation standards). • Output load impedance set for high efficiency at OP1dB, with ruggedness (survival) into output 4:1 VSWR. In some cases, low power operation being one, it may be desirable to improve output return loss seen on evaluation board. This can be done with output match adjust. The result will be an increase in small signal gain. Tradeoffs between return loss, gain, OIP3, and compression point can then be considered in obtaining optimum performance for a particular application. Finally, infrastructure qualification report for RF3809 can be obtained by contacting RFMD.

The pocket is designed to hold the part for shipping and loading onto SMT manufacturing equipment, while protecting the boyd and the solder terminals from damaging stresses. The individual pocket design can vary from vendor to vendor, but wide and pitch will be consistent. Carrier tape is wound or placed on a shipping reel with a diameter of either 330mm (13inches) or 178mm (7inches). The center hub design is large enough to ensure the radius formed by the carrier tape around it does not put unnecessary stress on the parts. Prior to shipping, moisture sensitive parts (MSL level 2a to 5a) are baked and placed into the pockets of the carrier tape. A cover tape is sealed over the top of the entire length of the carrier tape. The reel is sealed in a moisture barrier, ESD bag, which is placed in a cardboard shipping box. It is important to note that unused moisture sensitive parts need to be resealed in the moisture barrier bag. If the reels exceed the exposure limit and need to be rebaked, most carrier tape and shipping reels are not rate as bakeable at 125°C. If baking is required, devices may be baked according to section 4, table 4-1, column 8 of Joint Industry Standard IPC/JEDECJ-STD-033A. The following table provides useful information for carrier tape and reels used for shipping the devices described in this document.
