The TQP9309 is a high-efficiency two-stage power amplifier in a low-cost surface-mount package with on-chip bias control and temperature compensation circuitry, suitable for small cell base station applications. TQP9309 provides 32 dB gain and >+28 dBm linear power with pre-distortion correction over the 0.7-1.0 GHz frequency range for Bands 5, 6, 8, 12, 13, 14, 17, 20, 26, 27, 28, and 29. With pre-distortion, the amplifier is able to achieve -50dBc ACLR at 28 dBm output power using a 20 MHz LTE signal.

The TQP9309 integrates two high performance amplifier stages onto a module to allow for a compact system design and requires very few external components for operation. The amplifier is bias adjustable allowing the amplifier’s power consumption to be optimized. The TQP9309 is available in a lead-free RoHS-compliant 3.5x4.5mm surface mount package and is pin-compatible to the 1.8-2.2 GHz TQP9321 and 2.5-2.7 GHz TQP9326.
