DESCRIPTION

The SA3600 is an integrated dual-band RF front-end that operates at both cellular (AMPS and TDMA) and PCS (TDMA) frequencies, and is designed in a 20 GHz fT BiCMOS process—QUBiC2.

FEATURES

• Low current consumption: LB ICC = 14.5 mA; HB ICC = 20.5 mA

• Outstanding low- and high-band noise figure

• LNAs with gain control (30 dB gain step)

• LO input and output buffers

• Selectable frequency doubler

• On chip logic for network selection and power down

• Very small outline package

APPLICATIONS

• 800 to 1000 MHz analog and digital receivers

• 1800 to 2000 MHz digital receivers

• Portable radios

• Mobile communications equipment
