RFPA5552
Wi-Fi Integrated PA Module
4900MHz to 5925MHz
RFMD + TriQuint = Qorvo
Product Description
The RFPA5552 is a three-stage power amplifier (PA) designed for
Wi-Fi 802.11a/n/ac systems. The compact form factor and
integrated matching minimizes layout area in the application and
greatly reduces the number of external components.
Performance is focused on optimizing the PA for a 3.3V supply
voltage that conserves power consumption while maintaining the
highest linear output power and leading edge throughput.
Package: QFN, 20-pin,
4mm x 4mm x 0.9mm max
A key feature is the integration of a logarithmic power detector
which enables power control across the entire power spectrum for
applications which use higher gain antennas or end users wanting
to reduce device calibration time in production.
Feature Overview
