The RF3146 is a high-power, high-efficiency power amplifier module with integrated power control of
RFMD. The device is a self-contained 7mm*7mm*0.9mm lead frame module with 50ohm input and
output terminals. The power control function is also incorporated, eliminating the need for directional
couplers, detector diodes, power control ASICs and other power control circuitry(See figure 34) ; this
allows the module to be driven directly from the DAC output. The device is designed for use as the
final RF amplifier in GSM850 and PCS handsets. On-board power control provides over 50dB of
control range with an Analog voltage input. The RF3146 has Max +35dBm GSM output power and
Max +33dBm PCS output power at 3.5V.
