Qorvo's TQP9218 is a high-linearity two-stage power amplifier in a low-cost surface-mount package with on-chip bias control and temperature control circuits. The amplifier provides 31 dB gain and +24.5 dBm linear power over the 1.805 – 1.880 GHz frequency range. This amplifier is able to achieve -48 dBc ACLR at +24.5 dBm output power using 20 MHz LTE signal without the need for external linearization. The TQP9218 integrates two high performance amplifier stages onto a module to allow for a compact system design and requires very few external components for operation. The amplifier is bias adjustable allowing the amplifier's power consumption to be optimized. The TQP9218 is available in a lead-free/RoHS-compliant 7 x 7 mm surface mount package.
The TQP9218 is targeted for small cell or enterprise Femtocell basestation applications, distributed antenna systems (DAS), repeaters, and/or booster amplifiers.
