Freescale Semiconductor's Airfast RF power solutions cover all major cellular infrastructure bands from 700-2700MHz. The AFT27S006N and AFT27S010N deliver peak power of 6W and 10W, respectively. Suited for macro base station MIMO applications rated up to 40W average power, the transistors can also be used as universal driver devices for a variety of additional RF applications.

While many competitive solutions require deployment of multiple RF devices to support this range, the AFT27S006N and AFT27S010 support this cellular band range with a single power amplifier. Easy to use and flexible, the Airfast RF transistors provide single-stage gain of 20-24dB.

Ritu Favre, Senior Vice President and General Manager, RF business, Freescale, commented: “With this product introduction, Freescale has taken one of its best RF devices and made it better. Freescale’s advanced LDMOS process technology enables our new Airfast devices to be smaller and more capable across all major cellular frequency bands.”

“These latest additions to Freescale’s Airfast device portfolio will continue the company’s synergistic approach to modern power amplifier design for wireless base stations. Additionally, these driver devices offer excellent performance, ease-of-use and a small footprint,” comments Lance Wilson, Research Director, ABI Research.

Supplied in a small PLD-1.5W package, the 6W AFT27S006N and 10W AFT27S010N are in production now.
