3.1. Using a Discrete “Chip” Inductor
If the required value for LEXT is greater than 3 nH, it is recommended that a discrete “chip” inductor be used. This inductor should be placed as close as possible to the device pins as shown in Figure 1.

INTRODUCTION
Freescale Semiconductor’s General Purpose Amplifier (GPA) devices are all designed to operate from a single positive voltage supply. The GPAs have output powers ranging from 12 to 34 dBm. They are currently designed with three different circuit techniques: Darlington Pair Discrete with integrated current mirror Field Effect Transistor (
