LTC1758-1/LTC1758-2
RF Power Controllers with
250kHz Control Loop Bandwidth and
40dB Dynamic Range
DESCRIPTIO
The LTC
廬
1758-2 is a dual band RF power controller for
RF power amplifiers operating in the 850MHz to 2GHz
range. The loop bandwidth reduction to 250kHz im-
proves frequency stability when controlling slow turn-on
PAs such as the Philips BGY280, Conexant RM009/
CX77302, Anadigics AWT6102/AWT6107 and the Hitachi
PF08107/PF08123B.
The LTC1758-1 is a single output RF power controller
that is identical in performance to the LTC1758-2 except
that one output (V
PCA
) is provided. The LTC1758-1 can
be used to drive a single RF or dual channel module with
integral multiplexer. This part is available in an 8-pin
MSOP package.
RF power is controlled by driving the RF amplifier power
control pins and sensing the resultant RF output power
via a directional coupler. The RF sense voltage is peak
detected using an on-chip Schottky diode. This detected
voltage is compared to the DAC voltage at the PCTL pin
to control the output power. The RF power amplifier is
protected against high supply current and high power
control pin voltages.
Internal and external offsets are cancelled over tempera-
ture by an autozero control loop, allowing accurate low
power programming. The shutdown feature disables the
part and reduces the supply current to < 1碌A(chǔ).
