TQM6M5001

The advanced quad-band multimode GSM/EDGE Transmit Module TQM6M5001 designed for mobile handset applications provides full RF transmit functionality in a size of only 36 mm2. This module has been optimized for high EDGE efficiency and EDGE power class E2 operating while maintaining high GSM/GPRS efficiency.

The GSM850/900 and DCS/PCS power amplifier blocks including power control are combined with the low insertion loss quad-band pHEMT switch, Tx harmonics filtering, integrated switch decoder, four receive ports, and full ESD protection. This architecture of TQM6M5001 eliminates the need for any PA-to-switch design effort for phone designers. All four Rx ports are frequency independent and allow flexible routing to the transceiver. Fabricated in high-reliability InGaP HBT / pHEMT technology, the module supports GPRS class 12 operation and provides 50 Ohms input and output impedances at all RF input and output ports. The module control inputs are CMOS compatible and has no need for an external reference voltage. With its excellent efficiency performance in all 4 bands, the power amplifier and switch module TQM6M5001 contributes to the overall talktime targets of next generation mobile handset designs.
