 PA2423L
2.4 GHz Bluetooth Class 1 Power Amplifier IC Preliminary Information
Applications
Bluetoothtm Class 1 USB Dongles Laptops Access Points Cordless Piconets
Product Description
A monolithic, high-efficiency, silicon-germanium power amplifier IC, the PA2423L is designed for class 1 Bluetoothtm 2.4 GHz radio applications. It delivers +22.5 dBm output power with 45% power-added efficiency - making it capable of overcoming insertion losses of up to 2.5 dB between amplifier output and antenna input in tm class 1 Bluetooth applications. The amplifier features: an analog control input for improving PAE at reduced output power levels; a digital control input for controlling power up and power down modes of operation. An on-chip ramping circuit provides the turnon/off switching of amplifier output with less than 3dB overshoot, meeting the Bluetoothtm specification 1.1. The PA2423L operates at 3.3V DC. At typical output power level (+22.5 dBm), its current consumption is 125 mA. The silicon/silicon-germanium structure of the PA2423L - and its exposed-die-pad package, soldered to the system PCB - provide high thermal conductivity and a subsequently low junction temperature. This device is capable of operating at a duty cycle of 100 percent.

Applications Information
For test and design purposes, SiGe Semiconductor offers an evaluation board for the PA2423L. The order part number for the evaluation board is PA2423L-EV. The evaluation board is intended to simplify the testing with respect to RF performance of this power amplifier. The application note, 05AN006 provides the supporting information for using the evaluation board. It contains information on the schematic, bill of materials and recommended layout for the power amplifier and the input and output matching networks. To assist in the design process, this layout is available, upon request, in gerber file format.
Using VRAMP VRAMP is a digital pin used to power-up and power-down the PA2423L in Time Duplex systems such as Bluetoothtm 1.1. During receive mode, VRAMP voltage is pulled down, PA2423L acts as a 25 dB isolation block between the radio and the antenna while consuming a modest 1uA. In transmit mode, VRAMP voltage is pulled to VCC and PA2423L offers 19 dB to 21dB of large signal gain. The rise and fall time are in the order of 1-2usec.

PA2423L
2.4 GHz Bluetooth Class 1 Power Amplifier IC Preliminary Information
Using VCTL VCTL is an analog pin that is designed to control the gain of PA2423L. Applying a voltage between 0V and Vcc will adjust the gain between -15dB and 21 dB. Used in combination with a variable drive level to PA2423L, the VCTL function can greatly optimize the PAE of the system at all four Bluetoothtm transmitted power levels.
By applying approximately 1.4V to VCTL, for example, a Class1 radio can be modified to a Class2 radio with the PA2423L consuming only 15mA. By implementing a resistor DAC, the VCTL pin can interface with Bluetoothtm transceivers offering digital and programmable outputs.
