PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
TheAWU6602HELP3TMPAisa3rdgenerationWCDMA
product for UMTS handsets. This PA incorporates
ANADIGICS’ HELP3TM technology to provide low
powerconsumptionwithouttheneedforanexternal
voltage regulator.A “daisy chainable” directional
couplerisintegratedinthemodulethuseliminatingthe
needofexternalcouplers.Thedeviceismanufactured
onanadvancedInGaPHBTMMICtechnologyoffering
state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability, and
ruggedness. There are two selectable bias modes
that optimize efciency for different output power
levels,andashutdownmodewithlowleakagecurrent,
whichincreaseshandsettalkandstandbytime.The
self-contained3mmx3mmx1mmsurfacemount
packageincorporatesmatchingnetworksoptimizedfor

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Table 2: Absolute Minimum and Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute ratings may cause permanent damage.
Functional operation is not implied under these conditions. Exposure
to absolute ratings for extended periods of time may adversely affect
reliability.
Table 3: Operating Ranges
The device may be operated safely over these conditions; however, parametric performance is guaranteed only
over the conditions dened in the electrical specications.
Notes:
(1) For operation at Vc c = +3.2 V, Po u t is derated by 0.5 dB.

Shutdown Mode
The power amplier may be placed in a shutdown
mode by applying logic low levels (see Operating
Rangestable)totheVENABLE and VMODE1voltages.
Bias Modes

TheBiasControltableliststherecommendedmodes
of operation for various applications. VMODE2 is not
necessaryforthisPA.

HELP3
TheAWU6602 power amplier module is based on
ANADIGICS proprietary HELP3™ technology. The
PA is designed to operate up to 17 dBm in the low
powermode,thuseliminatingtheneedforthreegain
state, while still maintaining low quiescent current
andhighefciencyinlowandmediumpowerlevels.
ThePA canstillbeoperatedas3gainstate device
if the customer chooses to. The directional “daisy
chainable”couplerisintegratedwithinthePAmodule,
thereforethereisnoneedforexternalcouplers.
TheAWU6602 has an integrated voltage regulator,
which eliminates the need for an external constant
voltage source. The PA is turn on/off is controlled
by VEN pin.A single VMODE control logic (VMODE1) is
neededtooperatethisdevice.
The DG09 power distribution (gure 15) highlights
theneedtoimprovethecurrentconsumptioninlow
andmediumpowerlevel.TheAWU6602isdesigned
tooperateupto17dBminthelowpowermodewith
verylowquiescentcurrent.Currentconsumptionfor
AWU6602isalsoplottedinthegure5.
AWU6602 requires only two calibration sweeps for
systemcalibration,thussavingcalibrationtime.
Figure16showsoneapplicationexampleonmobile
board. C1 and C2 are RF bypass caps and should
be placed nearby pin 1 and pin 10. Bypass caps
C9andC5maynotbeneeded.Alsoa“T”matching
topology is recommended at PA RFIN and RFOUT
portstoprovidematchingbetweeninputTXFilterand
