RF Amplifiers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix BLKG against official Broadcom documentation to confirm package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with 28-QFN footprint requirements. Check moisture sensitivity level classifications prior to storage and handling procedures. Confirm that the intended application frequency aligns with the 2.62 GHz to 2.69 GHz operational range defined in the datasheet.

RF Amplifiers Selection Notes

Select this component when a dedicated linear power amplifier is required for the 2.62–2.69 GHz band. Consider the 350 mA supply current requirement for power budget calculations. Evaluate the 28-VFQFN package dimensions for PCB layout constraints. Compare thermal management needs against the surface-mount form factor. Ensure the application demands the specific linearity characteristics provided by this integrated module rather than discrete solutions.
