Paper-thin Wi-Fi power amplifier

( 01 Dec 2006 )



SiGe Semiconductor’s Range- Charger SE2523BU offers high performance and power efficiency in a new paper-thin package with a profile of just 0.5mm. The ultrathin design also reduces power consumption by 25%, making it ideal for embedding Wi-Fi capability into portable, batterypowered consumer electronics.

The latest addition to the company’s E2523x series of power amplifiers, the device addresses the growing demand for embedded Wi- Fi capability in portable consumer electronics, including PDAs, VoWi- Fi handsets, cameras, cellular handsets, computer peripherals, and automotive devices.

Based on an efficient silicon germanium architecture, the SE2523BU ensures a low current draw of just 130mA at +18.5dBm output power, operating from a single 3.3V supply. This is about 25% less than existing solutions. Ideal for battery-powered devices. SiGe Semiconductor, www.sige.com
