CMOS Power Amplifiers
Axiom has an innovative power amplifier product that achieves the performance required to meet
the 3GPP standards for GSM/GPRS mobile phones. The Axiom PA integrates the power amplifier core,
the power controller and the matching circuits on the same die bringing the full cost advantage
of CMOS technology. A low cost plastic leadframe based package is used in order to minimize cost.
The most important achievement in moving the power amplifier to Silicon CMOS is the elimination of the
many off-die components and the multi-chip module inherent in GaAs power amplifier implementations.
