The QPA9501 from Qorvo is a Power Amplifier with integrated power detector that operates from 5.1 to 5.9 GHz. This amplifier has been developed for LTE-U / LAA wireless infrastructure applications, Wi-Fi access points and small cells, telematics and point-to-point backhaul. It has been optimized power dissipatio which makes it well suited for implementation into next generation MIMO configurations and well designed to work with or without digital pre-distortion (DPD). It provides a gain of 32 dB with -47dBc ACLR at a Pout of 23dBm with a 20 MHz LTE signal without any DPD (Digital pre-distortion). The QPA9501 is available in a small footprint 4.0 x 4.0 x 0.85 mm 20-pin QFN package.
