SKY65135-31

2.4-2.5 GHz WLAN Power Amplifier


Please note: SKY65135-31 is being discontinued and is not recommended for new designs.

The SKY65135-31 is a Microwave Monolithic Integrated Circuit (MMIC) Power Amplifier (PA) with superior output power, linearity, and efficiency. These features make the SKY65135-31 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 SKY65135-31 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 and mounted in a 20-pin, 6 x 6 mm Multi-Chip Module (MCM) Surface-Mounted Technology (SMT) package, which allows for a highly manufacturable low cost solution.
