Wide instantaneous bandwidth high-efficiency PA for enterprise small cell applications

Skyworks has introduced the SKY66318-11, a new addition to their family of high-efficiency power amplifiers (PA) that are created for the stringent demands of enterprise small cell applications. The PA provides wide instantaneous bandwidth (100MHz) and is fully input/output matched with high gain and efficiency. On-chip active biasing circuitry is also integrated to compensate for PA performance over temperature, voltage, and process variations.

The device is supplied in a compact 5mm x 5mm package, operates from a single 5V power supply, and is excellent for 4G LTE and 5G NR systems from 3300MHz to 3600MHz.

The device is part of a high-efficiency, pin-to-pin compatible PA family supporting major 3GPP bands.
