Description
The SE2623L is a 2.4 GHz Power Amplifier (PA) designed for use
in the 2.4 GHz Industrial, Scientific, Medical (ISM) band for
wireless Local Area Network (LAN) applications. The SE2623L
device incorporates a power detector for closed loop monitoring
of the output power.
The SE2623L includes a digital enable control for device on/off
control.
The SE2623L temperature-compensated power detector is highly
immune to mismatch at its output, with less than +1.5 dB of
variation with a 2:1 mismatch.
A block diagram of the SE2623L is shown in Figure 1. The device
package and pinout for the 16-pin QFN are shown in Figure 2.

Note 1: Exposure to maximum rating conditions for extended periods may reduce device reliability. There is no damage to device with only one parameter set at the limit and all other
parameters set at or below their nominal value. Exceeding any of the limits listed here may result in permanent damage to the device.
CAUTION: Although this device is designed to be as robust as possible, Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can damage this device. This device
must be protected at all times from ESD. Static charges may easily produce potentials of several kilovolts on the human body
or equipment, which can discharge without detection. Industry-standard ESD precautions should be used at all times.
