OUTLINE DRAWING
Amplifier output spectrum with a +37 dBm (5-watt) NADC π/4
DQPSK output. The first and second adjacent channels are at
30 kHz and 60 kHz offsets. The first adjacent channels of our
measurements do not overlap with the primary channel.
Output modulation characteristics with a +37 dBm (5-watt) NADC
π
/4 DQPSK output. This HP 89441A display includes a constellation
diagram, the samplings of vector error, and the EVM (error vector
magnitude) calculations from averaged samplings of the signal.

atkins-Johnson’s SA1070 Power
Amplifier provides exceptional lin-
earity and low vector error for TDMA digi-
tal modulation applications. Utilizing WJ’s
GaAs amplifiers driving bipolar transistors
in the class A output stage, the SA1070
achieves a very high output third-order
intercept point combined with superior
efficiency.

Notes: 1. TDMA spectral regrowth is measured with a spread spectrum input from a Marconi 2051 Signal Generator selecting the “Digital/Cellaular/NADC”
modulation system that produces
π
/4 DQPSK modulation with 24.30 kHz symbol rate and Root Nyquist filtering with alpha = 0.35.
This unit is to be mounted on a ground plane and thermal heat sink, with a maximum heat sink temperature of +85°C.
