RF5602

3.0V TO 5.0V, 2.3GHz TO 2.7GHz

LINEAR POWER AMPLIFIER

The RF5602 is a linear power amplifier IC designed specifically for

medium power applications. The device is manufactured on an advanced

InGaP Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) process, and has been

designed for use as the final RF amplifier in 802.11b/g/n access point

transmitters. The device is provided in a 3mm x 3mm x 0.45mm, 16-pin,

leadless chip carrier with a backside ground. The RF5602 is designed to

maintain linearity over a wide range of supply voltages and power outputs.
