The RF2103P is a medium power linear amplifier IC. The
device is manufactured on an advanced Gallium Arsenide
Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) process, and has
been designed for use as the final linear RF amplifier in
UHF radio transmitters operating between 450MHz and
1000MHz. It may also be used as a driver amplifier in
higher power applications. The device is self-contained
with the exception of the output matching network, power
supply feed line, and bypass capacitors, and it produces
an output power level of 750mW (CW). The device can
be used in 3 cell battery applications. The maximum CW
output at 3.6V is 175mW. The unit has a total gain of
31dB, depending upon the output matching network.
