The STPAC02F2 is an integrated RF detector for
power control chain. It has been developed to
convert the RF signal coming from the external
coupler into a DC signal usable by the mobile
digital stage. It is based on the use of two similar
diodes, one assuming the signal detection while
the second one is used to compensate the
ambient temperature effect. A biasing stage
suppresses the detection diode drop voltage
effect. The use of the IPAD technology allows the
RF front-end designer to save PCB area and to
drastically suppress the parasitic inductances of
the package.
Target applications are cellular phones and PDA
using GSM, DCS, PCS, AMPS, TDMA, CDMA
and 800 MHz to 2100 MHz frequency ranges.
