Precautions
1. This product is designed to be used for Narrowband amplification.
Heat generation is higher when there is no RF signal in the device. Therefore, the worst case scenario is when there is no RF
signal, and the amplifier is “on” with current draw. The temperature must be calculated properly.
Case temperature must maintain below 85°C.
2. Thermal Grease or Metal Thermal Interface Materials are recommended for heat dissipation.
An example would be spreading thermal grease on the bottom of the device.

* Mounting Configuration Notes
1. Ground / thermal via holes are critical for the proper performance of this device.
2. Add as much copper as possible to inner and outer layers near the part to ensure optimal thermal performance.
3. Mounting screws can be added near the part to fasten the board to a heatsink. Ensure that the ground / thermal via hole region contacts the heatsink.
4. Do not put solder mask on the backside of the PCB in the region where the board contacts the heatsink.
5. RF trace width depends upon the PCB material and construction.
6. Use 1 oz. Copper minimum.
