RF106 900 MHz Power Amplifier
Product Description
The RF106 is a class AB RF power amplifier for 900 MHz
ISM band applications. It delivers output power
proportional to the input signal power.
The RF106 power amplifier, combined with Conexant's
RF105 diSSTance™ (digital Spread Spectrum
Technology) transceiver, forms a complete system
solution for a direct conversion 900 MHz diSSTance radio
which is fully compliant with FCC Part 15 regulations in
the ISM band.
The RF106 is operational in the 900 MHz ISM band with
supply voltage ranging from 2.7V to 5V. It is available in a
small 20-pin TSSOP package, shown in Figure 1. Figure 2
shows a block diagram for the RF106.
