Product Description
The SE5012T is a 5GHz front end module offering
high linear power for wireless LAN applications. It
incorporates a power detector for control of the output
power.
The SE5012T offers a high level of integration for a
simplified design, providing quicker time to market
and higher application board production yield. The
device integrates the input match, inter-stage match,
a temperature compensated, load insensitive power
detector with 20dB of dynamic range, a 3.8GHz notch
filter, a T/R switch and LNA.
For wireless LAN applications, the device meets the
requirements of IEEE802.11a and delivers
approximately 17dBm of linear output power at
VCC=3.3V or 21dBm at VCC=5.0V. It also features a
low linearity mode control to reduce current
consumption at low power modes.
The SE5012T integrates the reference voltage
generator, allowing for a true 1.8V CMOS compatible
digital EN (enable) function to turn the power amplifier
on and off.
