Microchip Technology has expanded its RF power amplifier portfolio, with the addition of the new SST12LP17E and SST12LP18E devices in June, 2011.
Features and USP: The SST12LP17E is the smallest fully matched power amp in its class, requiring only one DC bypass capacitor to achieve optimum performance. The SST12LP18E is a lower cost, lower voltage alternative to Microchip’s SST12LP14E power amp. It offers the lowest operating voltage of any Microchip RF power amp, while operating at -20 to+85˚ Celsius. The devices feature operating voltages as low as 2.7 V, linear output power as high as 18.5 dBm at 2.5 per cent EVM using IEEE 802.11g OFDM 54 Mbps, and 23.5 dBm for IEEE 802.11b apart from a high power added efficiency of up to 38 per cent for IEEE 802.11b.
