ALT6181 MMPA features an integrated voltage regulator, separate single-ended RF chains, and high directivity couplers. WCDMA/LTE linearity specifications for bands 1, 5, 6, 18, 19, and 26 have been enhanced, while ensuring that critical harmonic, noise and intermodulation performance results in superior mobile device performance.
Similar to the new ProEficient family of products, the ALT6181 MMPA provides optimal WCDMA/LTE efficiency across all power levels, without the use of a DC-DC converter. This MMPA delivers high GSM/EDGE efficiency of over 40 percent in high power mode combined with more than 20 percent efficiency in low power mode. The device also has an exceptionally low quiescent current of 4 mA.
