PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
TheAWU6605HELP3TMPAisa3rdgenerationWCDMA
product for UMTS handsets. This PA incorporates
ANADIGICS’ HELP3TM technology to provide low
powerconsumptionwithouttheneedforanexternal
voltage regulator.A “daisy chainable” directional
couplerisintegratedinthemodulethuseliminatingthe
needofexternalcouplers.Thedeviceismanufactured
on an advanced InGaP HBT MMIC technology offering
state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability, and
ruggedness. There are two selectable bias modes
that optimize efciency for different output power
levels,andashutdownmodewithlowleakagecurrent,
whichincreaseshandsettalkandstandbytime.The
self-contained3mmx3mmx1mmsurfacemount
packageincorporatesmatchingnetworksoptimizedfor
outputpower,efciency,andlinearityina50Ωsystem.

HELP3
TheAWU6605 power amplier module is based on
ANADIGICS proprietary HELP3™ technology. The
PA is designed to operate up to 17 dBm in the low
powermode,thuseliminatingtheneedforthreegain
state, while still maintaining low quiescent current
andhighefciencyinlowandmediumpowerlevels.
ThePA canstillbeoperatedas3gainstate device
if the customer chooses to. The directional “daisy
chainable”couplerisintegratedwithinthePAmodule,
thereforethereisnoneedforexternalcouplers.
TheAWU6605 has an integrated voltage regulator,
which eliminates the need for an external constant
voltage source. The PA is turn on/off is controlled
by VEN pin.A single VMODE control logic (VMODE1) is
neededtooperatethisdevice.
The DG09 power distribution (gure 15) highlights
theneedtoimprovethecurrentconsumptioninlow
andmediumpowerlevel.TheAWU6605isdesigned
tooperateupto17dBminthelowpowermodewith
verylowquiescentcurrent.Currentconsumptionfor
AWU6605isalsoplottedinthegure5.
AWU6605 requires only two calibration sweeps for
systemcalibration,thussavingcalibrationtime.
Figure16showsoneapplicationexampleonmobile
board. C1 and C2 are RF bypass caps and should
be placed nearby pin 1 and pin 10. Bypass caps
C9andC5maynotbeneeded.Alsoa“T”matching
topology is recommended at PA RFIN and RFOUT
portstoprovidematchingbetweeninputTXFilterand
