DESCRIPTION
The LX5516 is a power amplifier module optimized for WLAN applications in the 2.4-2.5GHz frequency range. The PAM is implemented as a two-stage monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) with on-chip active bias and 50 Ω impedance matched at both input and output.
The device is manufactured with an InGaP/GaAs Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) IC process (MOCVD). With single low voltage supply of 3.3V, it delivers 29dB power gain between 2.4-2.5GHz, at a low quiescent current of 80mA.
