GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This amplifier is a high power, high efficiency linear amplifier IC
targeting 3V handheld systems. The device is manufactured with
GaAs Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (HBTs) and is intended to
be the final amplification stage in hand-held digital equipment and
spread spectrum systems. The power amplifier is packaged in a
20pin 4mm x 4mm MLP (Micro Leadframe
Package).
