The RMPA0951-102 is a dual mode, small-outline power amplifier module (PAM) for Cellular CDMA personal
communication system applications. The PA is internally-matched to 50 ohms and DC blocked which minimizes the
use of external components and reduces circuit complexity for system designers. High AMPS/CDMA efficiency and
good linearity are achieved using Raytheon’s Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) process.
