PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AWB7223 is a fully matched, Multi-Chip-Module
(MCM) designed for picocell, femtocell, and customer
premises equipment (CPE) applications. Its high
linearity and efciency meet the extremely demanding
needs of small cell infrastructure architectures.
Designed for WCDMA, HSDPA, and LTE air interfaces
operating in the 1.930 GHz to 1.995 GHz band, the
AWB7223 delivers up to +27 dBm of WCDMA (64
DPCH) power with an ACPR better than -50 dBc. It
FEATURES

Data Cards and Terminals
operates from a convenient +4.5 V supply and provides
30.5 dB of gain. The device is manufactured using an
advanced InGaP HBT MMIC technology offering
state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability, and
ruggedness. The self-contained 7 mm x 7 mm x 1.3
mm surface mount package incorporates RF matching
networks optimized for output power, efciency, and
linearity in a 50 Ω system.
