RA20H8994M
RoHS Compliance , 896-941MHz 20W 12.5V, 3 Stage Amp. For MOBILE RADIO
DESCRIPTION
The RA20H8994M is a 20-watt RF MOSFETAmplifier Module for
12.5-volt mobile radios that operate in the 896- to 941-MHz range.
The battery can be connected directly to the drain of the
enhancement-mode MOSFET transistors. Without the gate voltage
(VGG=0V), only a small leakage current flows into the drain and the RF
input signal attenuates up to 60 dB. The output power and drain current
increase as the gate voltage increases. With a gate voltage around
4V (minimum), output power and drain current increases substantially.
The nominal output power becomes available at 4.5V (typical) and 5V
(maximum). At VGG=5V, the typical gate current is 1 mA.
This module is designed for non-linear FM modulation, but may also be
used for linear modulation by setting the drain quiescent current with
the gate voltage and controlling the output power with the input power.
