Pb-Free Product Typical Applications • 3V Quad-Band GSM Handsets • Commercial and Consumer Systems • Portable Battery-Powered Equipment Product Description
The RF3140 is a high-power, high-efficiency power amplifier module with integrated power control. The device is self-contained with 50Ω input and output terminals. The power control function is also incorporated, eliminating the need for directional couplers, detector diodes, power control ASICs and other power control circuitry; this allows the module to be driven directly from the DAC output. The device is designed for use as the final RF amplifier in GSM850, EGSM900, DCS and PCS handheld digital cellular equipment and other applications in the 824MHz to 849MHz, 880MHz to 915MHz, 1710MHz to 1785MHz and 1850MHz to 1910MHz bands. On-board power control provides over 50dB of control range with an analog voltage input; and, power down with a logic “low” for standby operation. Optimum Technology Matching® Applied

Pin 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Function Description DCS/PCS IN RF input to the DCS/PCS band. This is a 50Ω input. Allows external control to select the GSM or DCS/PCS bands with a BAND logic high or low. A logic low enables the GSM bands, whereas a logic SELECT high enables the DCS/PCS bands. TX ENABLE VBATT VREG VRAMP GSM850/GS M900 IN VCC2 GSM850/GS M900 OUT VCC OUT
This signal enables the PA module for operation with a logic high. Once TX Enable is asserted the RF output level will increase to -20dBm. Power supply for the module. This should be connecte
