RF Amplifiers Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including the suffix against official CML Micro documentation to ensure correct packaging and tape specifications. Confirm that the VQFN-16 package dimensions align with PCB footprint requirements. Check moisture sensitivity levels and reflow soldering profiles prior to assembly to prevent component damage during manufacturing processes.

RF Amplifiers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing transmitters requiring approximately 2 watts of linear output power in the 860-930 MHz band. It is suitable for battery-powered applications due to its moderate supply voltage and current consumption. Ensure thermal management strategies accommodate the power dissipation characteristics inherent to GaAs power amplifiers in compact packages.

RF Amplifiers Part Context

This model belongs to the CMX90A series of radio frequency power amplifiers from CML Micro. The series targets wireless infrastructure and industrial applications operating below 1 GHz. The Q7 suffix typically denotes specific reel packaging configurations used for automated surface-mount assembly lines.

RF Amplifiers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are not explicitly listed in public documentation. Evaluate other CMX90A series variants such as CMX90A003 or CMX90A004 if different power levels or frequency ranges are acceptable. Verify pin compatibility and thermal performance before swapping components.
