TQM663029A

The TriQuint TQM663029A, a member of the Tritium III product family, is a fully matched CDMA PCS band power amplifier / duplexer module for use in mobile phones. The module is designed with a focus on size, current consumption and phone layout simplicity. Within a compact area of only 28 mm², the module integrates a single-ended transmit filter, duplexer, high efficiency power amplifier die, RF power coupler, matching and built-in voltage regulator functionality, thus eliminating the need for external switch circuitry. With an RF power output up to 26 dBm, the TQM663029A meets the strict ACPR / ALTR requirements of multi-band, feature-rich CDMA2000 handset designs. The module will provide the lowest overall current consumption available in the market based on the current suburban CDG (CDMA Development Group) curve by providing a 3 gain state amplifier. In low power mode operation, a quiescent current of only 5 mA will allow the module to achieve an overall average current of less than 44 mA including RFT currents. The pin layout is optimized for use with new CDMA discrete and packaged transceiver solutions although its operation is backwards compatible with existing chipsets.

Features:

Compact 7.0 x 4.0 x 1.1 mm module replacing more than 16 discrete components

Integrated duplexer, single-ended Tx filter, power amplifier die, RF power coupler and matching

Built-in voltage regulator functionality eliminating any external switch circuitry

High efficiency three gain state PA for lowest overall current consumption

Typical quiescent current values:

• Low power mode (LPM) = 5 mA
• Medium power mode (MPM) = 17 mA
• High power mode (HPM) = 85 mA
