Evaluation Board Schematic - UMTS2100
This eval board for low power linear operation: 21dBm<POUT<27dBm, 5 V<VCC<8V. Bias R seen above for 8V and 60mA IREF.
See biasing table for setting resistance at other supply voltages.
RF3806 Biasing Table
The resistor values shown below are for varied VCC/ICQ conditions. Biasing for higher quiescent current will give increased lin-
earity. “R_Bias”=equivalent R in line with VREF (see values on evaluation board schematic: R4, R5, R7, R8).
Max allowable IREF=60mA.

In IREF=60mA case, calculated RBIAS was rounded up to nearest 0.5Ω.
This to keep IREF at or slightly below 60mA max.
