SKY65900-11

2.4-2.5 GHz +28 dBm WLAN Power Amplifier


The SKY65900-11 is a Microwave Monolithic Integrated Circuit (MMIC) Power Amplifier (PA) with superior output power, linearity, and efficiency. These features make the SKY65900-11 ideal for Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) applications. The high linearity (low EVM) and high efficiency of this device makes it ideal for use in the transmit chain of WLAN access points or modems.

The SKY65900-11 is fabricated using Skyworks high reliability Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) InGaP process, which allows for single supply operation while maintaining high efficiency and good linearity. The device is internally matched at the RF input and mounted in a 16-pin, 4 x 4 mm Quad Flat No-Lead (QFN) Surface-Mounted Technology (SMT) package, which allows for a highly manufacturable low cost solution.
