Place the 1 nF capacitor next
to RF5198 with minimal trace
length to the PA.
VCC BIAS
The 8.2nH inductor may be
required for isolation of VCC1
and VCC2 depending on layout.
VCC BIAS may be connected
to VCC; however, VCC must be
maintained above 1.5 V.
NOTE:
Additional averaging or lowpass filtering is required on this
pin to reduce the voltage ripple due to the W-CDMA
modulation. A lowpass cutoff frequency is selected through
trade-off between acceptable amplitude ripple and rise/fall
time. The 5.1 k
Ω resistor to ground provides a DC return
for the detector temperature compensation circuitry.
