GENERAL DESCRIPTION
UAA3592
The UAA3592 is a Wideband Code Division Multiple
Access (WCDMA) silicon bipolar transistor Monolithic
Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) Power Amplifier
(PA). The circuit is specially designed to operate at a
nominal 3.6 V battery supply voltage. It includes a current
saving architecture at low output power levels.
