Hi, ALL,
I need to design a PA at 887M with GSM signal.
1. I found a LDMOS which said it can have 77% efficiency at 870M, but my freq is 887M, is it possible to use the 870M match circuit for 887M TX? Attchment is the NXP LDMOS PA datasheet and 870M s-params and 887M s-params (In Amp-Angle format,). I compared 870M S-params and 887M S-params, they are almost same, only about 2% difference. I guess it can be ignored, but I don't know how this affect efficency. Any suggestions?
2. Since this LDMOS is a 16W PA, but I only need 10W, how this will affect efficiency?
3. Finally, I want to use LDMOS to design a PA with 70%+ efficiency at 887M, any comments?
Many thanks.
Cheers,
Tony Liu
PS:
Since *.s6p file extension is not accepted at this forum, so I change it to *.S6p.txt.
