Abstract
A high linearity, class A power amplifier has been designed for the Globalstar transmit band. The power amplifier provides 40 dB of gain at a Pout of 35 dBm (CDMA) at 1610.73 MHz with 30% efficiency with <-75 dBW/MHz ACP at 1605 MHz, thus exceeding the ETSI emissions requirement in the GLONASS band (1585-1605 MHz). The design has been verified from -30/spl deg/C to +70/spl deg/C.
