Fourth Generation WCDMA/EDGE Radio

As multiband, multimode functions are required for cell phone design, small and easy-to-use RF solutions are mandatory. NXP^® Semiconductors's RF subsystem solution offers a highly integrated, comprehensive radio solution for WCDMA/EDGE 3G terminals. Typical subsystems, often requiring greater than a hundred components, can now be shrunk to 70 percent fewer components in less than 649 mm2 of board space.

Two devices (MMM6000 and a GSM/EDGE integrated PA) combine to function over the GSM850, EGSM900, DCS1800 and PCS1900 frequency bands. Two other devices (MMM6007 and a WCDMA Integrated PA) make up the WCDMA (UMTS) portion to complete the full WCDMA/EDGE radio subsystem.
