Quarter-watt balanced amplifier covers 2.3 – 2.7 GHz

July 31, 2017 By Lee Teschler Leave a Comment

The QPA9807 from Qorvo is a balanced amplifier module with embedded hybrid couplers to convert to single QPA9807ended input and output ports. The module has an enable pin to allow for shutting down of the amplifier. The module requires minimal external components which are VCC choke inductors, decoupling caps and resistors for bias control.

The QPA9807 provides +24.7 dBm P1dB with 20 dB gain and +40.3 dBm OIP3 across a wide frequency range of 2300-2700 MHz to cover the 3GPP Bands 7, 30, 38, 40, and 41. The linear driver amplifier is targeted for use in wireless infrastructure where high linearity, medium power and high integration is required. The balanced amplifier configuration provides very good input and output VSWR and is especially ideal as the output stage in a macrocell transceiver board that connects to the high power amplifier (HPA) board through a long cable or microstrip trace. The QPA9807 is packaged in a small 5 x 5 mm leadless package that is internally matched to 50 ohm on all RF ports.
