The document introduces the features and characteristics of the radioOne RFL6000 low noise amplifier (LNA) and RFR6000 ZIF down converter. The RFL6000 LNA integrates two low noise amplifiers (LNA): a cellular LNA and a PCS LNA. Operating modes (Sleep, Rx, and Rx/Tx) and LNA bias currents are all automatically adjusted via software to minimize DC power consumption. Depending on the handset status, the LNA bias current adjusts automatically to meet RF performance requirements while minimizing power consumption. The device is fabricated using a SiGe BiCMOS process, which is suited for high performance RF circuits. The RFL6000 LNA is packaged in a very small 16-pin bump chip carrier (16-pin BCC++).
This document describes the Qualcomm MSM6150 chipset solution designed to enable future communications. It details the device's integration capabilities within CDMA terminal systems.
The text outlines the MSM6150's interface with two key companion IC families: the radioOne ZIF chipset (including RFL6000, RFR6000, RFT6100, and others) for RF functions and the powerOne series (specifically the PM6650) for battery management and voltage regulation.
| Process Technology | SiGe BiCMOS process |
|---|---|
| Power Supply Voltage | 2.7 to 3.0 V |
| Package Type (RFL6000) | 16-pin BCC++ |
| Package Type (RFR6000) | 40-pin BCC++ |
| Package Type (PM6650) | 84 BCCS dual-row bump chip carrier package |
The radioOne chipset eliminates the entire IF, reducing component count, space, and cost.
The PM6650 device from the powerOne series provides complete battery management and charging functions.
The RFT6100 device offers a transmit power control range of greater than 85 dB.
