Skyworks offers lead (Pb)-free, RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances)-compliant packaging.
Performance is guaranteed only under the conditions listed in the specifications table and is not guaranteed under the full range(s) described by the Absolute Maximum specifications. Exceeding any of the absolute maximum/minimum specifications may result in permanent damage to the device and will void the warranty.
CAUTION: Although this device is designed to be as robust as possible, ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) can damage this device. This device must be protected at all times from ESD. Static charges may easily produce potentials of several kilovolts on the human body or equipment, which can discharge without detection. Industry-standard ESD precautions must be employed at all times.

RF Out RF Out RF Out
Pin Name J1, J2 GND
Description RF input - RF input, 50 (nominal). An external DC block is required Equipotential point - Internal circuit common, which must be connected to the pcb ground or common via the lowest possible impedance. Bias adjust - 2nd stage - Quiescent current of the second amplifier stage as measured at VCC2 can be increased by adding a resistor between this pin and VREG. This pin may be left open if the nominal value of collector current for the second stage is acceptable. This pin should not be connected to ground. Regulated voltage input - The voltage applied to this pin supplies the active bias stages for the power amplifier stages. The nominal applied voltage is equal to VCC. The power amplifier stages are disabled if this pin is open. Bias adjust - output stage - Quiescent current of the output amplifier stage as measured at VCC2 can be increased by adding a resistor between this pin and VREG. This pin may be left open if the nominal value of collector current for the output stage is acceptable. This pin should not be connected to ground. Active detector supply voltage - The voltage applied to this pin powers the active detector circuit. The nominal applied value is equal to VCC. The active detector circuit is disabled if this pin is connected to ground. Active detector reference voltage output - The DC voltage produced at this pin can be used to track the temperature drift of the voltage from VDET. This voltage can be used to temperature compensate the voltage from VDET. Active detector output voltage - Detected output voltage which varies proportionally to the output power from the RF Out pins. RF output - RF outputs, internally connected to share signal currents. An internally-generated DC voltage is present at this pin, so a DC blocking capacitor should be included in the output circuit. No internal connection Collector supply voltage 2 - The voltage applied to these pins supplies the collector of the 2nd amplifier stage. These pins are internally connected to share current. Collector supply voltage 1 - The voltage applied to this pin supplies the collector of the input amplifier stage.
