Agilent ACPM-7813
CDMA/AMPS
Power Amplifier Module
Data Sheet
Description
The ACPM-7813 is a fully
matched CDMA Power amplifier
module. Designed around Agilent
Technologies' new Enhancement
Mode pHEMT process, the
ACPM-7813 offers premium
performance in a very small form
factor. Fully matched to 50 Ohms
on the input and output.
The amplifier has excellent ACPR
and efficiency performance at
max Pout and low quiescent
Features
Operating frequency:
824 849 MHz
28.5 dBm linear output power
@ 3.4 V
High efficiency: 40% PAE
Dynamic bias control for low
midpower Idd
Very low quiescent current with
single control voltage
Internal 50 ohm matching networks
for both RF IN/OUT
3.2 4.2V linear operation
cdma2000 1xRTT capable
Only 3 SMT parts needed
4.0 x 4.0 x 1.1 mm SMT package

Single control bias setting for low Idq
and 40%PAE at Pout = 28.5 dBm
current with a single bias control
voltage. For even lower quiescent
current, a dynamic bias control
circuit can be used by varying
the voltage on the Vcntl pin
between 1.2V to 2.5V.
Designed in a surface mount RF
package, the ACPM-7813 is cost
and size competitive.
The ACPM-7813 is another key
component of the Agilent
CDMAdvantage RF chipset.
