Positive supply for the first stage (driver) amplifier. This is an unmatched transistor collector output. This pin should see an inductive path to AC ground (VCC with a UHF bypassing capacitor). This inductance can be achieved with a short, thin microstrip line (approximately equivalent to 0.4nH). At lower frequencies, the inductance value should be larger (longer microstrip line) and VCC should be bypassed with a larger bypass capacitor. This inductance forms a matching network with the amplifier stages, setting the amplifier's frequency of maximum gain. An additional 1F bypass capacitor in parallel with the UHF bypass capacitor is also recommended, but placement of this component is not as critical. A resistor of 39 from this pin to pin 3 is necessary to ensure stability under extreme output VSWR conditions. Positive supply for the bias circuits. This pin should be bypassed with a single UHF capacitor, placed as close as possible to the package. Ground connection. Keep traces physically short and connect immediately to the ground plane for best performance. Same as pin 4. Ground return for the first stage; this should be connected to a via very close to the device. Amplifier RF input. This is a 50 RF input port to the amplifier. To improve the input match over all four gain control settings, an input inductor of 6.8nH should be added. The amplifier does not contain internal DC blocking and, therefore, should be externally DC blocked before connecting to any device which has DC present or which contains a DC path to ground. A series UHF capacitor is recommended for the DC blocking. Power down control voltage. When this pin is at 0V, the device will be in power down mode, dissipating minimum DC power. When this pin is at 3V the device will be in full power mode delivering maximum available gain and output power capability. This pin should not, in any circumstance, be higher than 3.3V. This pin should also have an external UHF and HF bypassing capacitor. Not internally connected. Not internally connected. Amplifier RF output. This is an unmatched collector output of the final amplifier transistor. It is internally connected to pins 11 and 14 to provide low series inductance and flexibility in output matching. Bias for the final power amplifier output transistor must also be provided through one of these pins. Typically, pin 14 is used to supply bias. A transmission line of approximately 500mils length, followed by a bypass capacitor, is adequate. This pin can also be used to create a second harmonic trap. A UHF and large tantalum (1F) capacitor should be placed on the power supply side of the bias inductor. Pin 11 should be used for the RF output with a matching network that presents the optimum load impedance to the PA for maximum power and efficiency, as well as providing DC blocking at the output. Same as pin 4. Same as pin 4. Same as pin 11. RF output power gain control 8dB bit (see specification table for logic). The control voltage at this pin should never exceed 3.3V and a logic high should be at least 2.7V. This pin should also have an external UHF bypassing capacitor.
