The RF Line
746-960 MHz RF LDMOS Wideband
Integrated Power Amplifier
The MHVIC915R2 wideband integrated circuit is designed for CDMA and
GSM/GSM EDGE applications. It uses Motorola’s newest high voltage (26
to 28 Volts) LDMOS IC technology and integrates a multi–stage structure.
Its wideband On–Chip integral matching circuitry makes it usable from 746
to 960 MHz. The linearity performances cover all modulations for cellular
applications: GSM, GSM EDGE, TDMA, and CDMA. The device is
packaged in a PFP–16 flat pack package that provides excellent thermal
performance through a solderable backside contact.
