1 General Description
The AS1339 is a high-frequency step-down converter
optimized for dynamically powering the power amplifier
(PA) in WCDMA or NCDMA handsets. The device uses
a 110mΩ typical bypass FET to power the PA directly
from the battery during high-power transmission. The IC
integrates two 10mA low-noise, low-dropout regulators
(LDOs) for PA biasing.
With a switching frequency of 2MHz, the device allows
optimization for smallest solution size or highest
efficiency. The AS1339 supports fast switching using
small ceramic 10μF input and 4.7µF output capacitors to
maintain low ripple voltage.
The AS1339 uses an analog input driven by an external
DAC to control the output voltage linearly for continuous
PA power adjustment. The gain from REFIN to OUT is
2.5V/V. At high-duty cycle, the device automatically
switches to a bypass mode, connecting the input to the
output through a low-impedance MOSFET. The LDOs
are designed for low-noise operation, wherein each LDO
in the device is individually enabled through its own logic
control interface. The device is available in a 16-pin
WLP (2x2mm) package.

In applications where high power dissipation
and/or poor package thermal resistance is
present, the maximum ambient temperature
may have to be derated.
Maximum ambient temperature (T

) is
dependent on the maximum operating junction
temperature (T
J-MAX-OP
= 125ºC), the maximum
power dissipation
of the device in the application (P
D-MAX
), and the
junction-to ambient thermal resistance of the
part/package in the application (θ

the following
equation: T
