FEATURES
• InGaP HBT Technology
• High Efficiency (37% Typical)
• Low Leakage Current (5µA)
• SMT Module Package
• Small Foot Print (6mm x 6mm)
• Low Profile (1.5mm)
• 50 Ω Input and Output Matching
• Low Quiescent Current (Icq = 63 mA)
• Shut Down & Mode Control
• CDMA 2000 IXRTT Compliant
APPLICATIONS

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AWT6106 is a 3.5 V (3.0 V to 4.2 V) high power,
high efficiency, three stage power amplifier module
for Dual Mode CDMA/PCS wireless handsets. The
device is manufactured on an advanced InGaP HBT
MMIC technology offering state-of-the-art reliability,
temperature stability, and ruggedness. A low power
quiescent current mode is digitally controlled to reduce
power drain on the system battery. The 6mm x 6mm
laminate package is self contained, incorporating 50Ω
input and output matching networks optimized for
output power, linearity, and efficiency.

Shutdown Mode
The power amplifier may be placed in a shutdown
mode by applying logic low levels (see Operating
Ranges table) to the VREF and VMODE voltages.
Bias Modes
The power amplifier may be placed in either a Low
Bias mode or a High Bias mode by applying the
appropriate logic level (see Operating Ranges table)
to the VMODE voltage. The Bias Control table lists the
recommended modes of operation for various
applications.
