Product Description
The RF2145 is a high power, high efficiency amplifier IC.
The device is manufactured on an advanced Gallium Ars-
enide Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) process,
and has been designed for use as the final RF amplifier in
a 4-cell DCS1800 or DCS1900 handset. The device is
packaged in a 16-lead plastic package with wide ground
leads, and is self-contained with the exception of the out-
put matching network and power supply feed line. Only a
single positive voltage is required to operate with full
power and efficiency, and on-board power control and
power-down functions are provided.

Function
PC
Description
Power control pin. This also provides power down when V
PC
is less
than +0.5V. Full power is achieved at 2.5V, and >45dB of gain control is
obtainable over the full range. Approximately 15mA current is drawn
into this pin at full power.
Ground connection. This pin should be connected to the ground plane
through a short path and may be combined with the ground plane from
Pins 3, 6, 7, 10, 11, 14, and 15. All four of these wide leads are tied
together internally to provide a low-inductance and low thermal resis-
tance path to external ground. Ground vias should be placed as close
as possible to each ground lead.
Same as pin 2.
Power supply pin for the first stage. Also provides tuning for interstage
match.

External matching is most easily achieved with a series transmission
line and shunt capacitors, as shown in the application schematic.
