The LTC1758-1 is a single output RF power controller
that is identical in performance to the LTC1758-2 except
that one output (VPCA) is provided. The LTC1758-1 can
be used to drive a single RF or dual channel module with
integral multiplexer. This part is available in an 8-pin
MSOP package.

RF power is controlled by driving the RF amplifier power
control pins and sensing the resultant RF output power
via a directional coupler. The RF sense voltage is peak
detected using an on-chip Schottky diode. This detected
voltage is compared to the DAC voltage at the PCTL pin
to control the output power. The RF power amplifier is
protected against high supply current and high power
control pin voltages.
Very Low Shutdown Current: <1µA
Available in 8-Pin MSOP (LTC1758-1)
and 10-Pin MSOP (LTC1758-2) Packages

APPLICATIO S
Internal and external offsets are cancelled over tempera-
ture by an autozero control loop, allowing accurate low
power programming. The shutdown feature disables the
part and reduces the supply current to <1µA.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Control Amplifier

Thecontrolamplifiersuppliesthepowercontrolvoltageto
the RF power amplifier. A portion (typically –19dB for low
frequencies and –14dB for high frequencies) of the RF
output voltage is sampled, via a directional coupler, to
close the gain control loop. When a DAC voltage is applied
toPCTL, theamplifierquicklyservosVPCA orVPCB positive
until the detected feedback voltage applied to the RF pin
matches the voltage at PCTL. This feedback loop provides
accurate RF power control. VPCA or VPCB are capable of
driving a 5.5mA load current and 100pF load capacitor.
The LTC1758 has a wider dynamic range than the
LTC1757A. The Schottky diode detector dynamic range
has been extended to over 40dB. The start voltage accu-
racy has been improved to ±17%. The autozero hold time
has been increased for applications requiring transmit
times of several hundred milliseconds. The PCTL input
filter bandwidth has been reduced to 350kHz for improved
rejection of DAC noise as well as smoother ramp shaping.
The bandwidth has been reduced to 250kHz to control
slow turn-on RF power amplifiers.
RF Detector
Operation
The internal RF Schottky diode peak detector and ampli-
fier converts the RF feedbackvoltage from the directional
coupler to a low frequency voltage. This voltage is com-
pared to the DAC voltage at the PCTL pin by the control
amplifier to close the RF power control loop. The RF pin
input resistance is typically 200Ω and the frequency
range of this pin is 850MHz to 2000MHz. The detector
demonstrates excellent efficiency and linearity over a
widerangeofinputpower. TheSchottkydetectorisbiased
at about 60µA and drives an on-chip peak detector capaci-
tor of 28pF.
The LTC1758-2 dual band RF power control amplifier
integrates several functions to provide RF power control
over frequencies ranging from 850MHz to 2GHz. The
device also prevents damage to the RF power amplifier
due to overvoltage or overcurrent conditions. These func-
tions include an internally compensated power control,
amplifier to control the RF output power, an autozero
section to cancel internal and external voltage offsets, a
sense amplifier with an internal sense resistor to limit the
maximum RF power amplifier current, an RF Schottky
diode peak detector and amplifier to convert the RF feed-
back signal to DC, a VPCA/B overvoltage clamp, gain
compression, a bandgap reference, a thermal shutdown
circuit and a multiplexer to switch the control amplifier
Autozero
An autozero system is included to improve power pro-
gramming accuracy over temperature. This section can-
cels internal offsets associated with the Schottky diode
detectorandcontrolamplifier.Externaloffsetsassociated
with the DAC driving the PCTL pin are also cancelled.
Offset drift due to temperature is cancelled between each
burst. The maximum offset allowed at the DAC output is
limited to 400mV. Autozeroing is performed when the
part is in autozero mode (SHDN = high, TXEN = low).
When the part is enabled (TXEN = high, SHDN = high) the
autozero capacitors are held and the VPCA or VPCB pin is
connected to the control amplifier output. The hold droop
voltage of typically <1µV/ms provides for accurate offset
cancellation over the normal 1/8 duty cycle associated
with the GSM protocol as well as with multislot protocols.
The part must be in the autozero mode for at least 50µs for
autozero to settle to the correct value.

.
Band Selection
The LTC1758-2 is designed for dual band operation. The
BSEL pin will select output VPCA when low and output
VPCB whenhigh.Forexample,VPCA couldbeusedtodrive
a 900MHz channel and VPCB a 1.8GHz/1.9GHz channel.
BSEL must be established before the part is enabled. The
LTC1758-1 can be used to drive a single RF channel or
dual channel with integral multiplexer.

Filter
Modes of Operation
There is a 350kHz single pole filter included in the PCTL
path.
The LTC1758-2 supports three operating modes: shut-
down, autozero and enable.
In shutdown mode (SHDN = Low) the part is disabled and
supply currents will be reduced to <1µA. VPCA and VPCB
will be connected to ground via 100Ω switches.
Protection Features
The RF power amplifier is overcurrent protected by an
internalsenseamplifier. Thesenseamplifiermeasuresthe
voltage across an internal 0.090Ω resistor to determine
the RF power amplifier current. VPCA or VPCB is lowered as
this supply current exceeds 2.2A, thereby regulating the
current to about 2.25A. The regulated current limit is
temperature compensated. The 0.090Ω resistor and the
current limit feature can be removed by connecting the PA
directly to VIN.
In autozero mode (SHDN = High, TXEN = Low) VPCA and
V
PCB will remain connected to ground and the part will be

at least 50µs to allow for the autozero circuit to settle.
In enable mode (SHDN = High, TXEN = High) the control
loop and protection functions will be operational. When
TXENisswitchedhigh, acquisitionwillbegin. Thecontrol
amplifier will start to ramp the control voltage to the RF
power amplifier. The RF amplifier will then start to turn
on. The feedback signal from the directional coupler and
theoutputpowerwillbedetectedbytheLTC1758-2atthe
RF pin. The loop closes and the amplifier output tracks
the DAC voltage ramping at PCTL. The RF power output
will then follow the programmed power profile from the
DAC.
The RF power amplifier control voltage pins are overvolt-
age protected. The VPC overvoltage clamp regulates VPCA
or VPCB to 2.85V when the gain and PCTL input combina-
tion attempts to exceed this voltage.
The internal thermal shutdown circuit will disable the
LTC1758-2 if the junction temperature exceeds approxi-
mately 150°C. The part will be enabled when the tempera-
ture falls below 140°C.

APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
LTC1758-1 Description
the VPCA/B outputs may take several microseconds to
reach the RF power amplifier threshold voltage. To reduce
this time, it may be necessary to apply a positive pulse at
the start of the ramp to quickly bring the VPCA/B outputs to
the threshold voltage. This can generally be achieved with
DAC programming. The magnitude of the pulse is depen-
dent on the RF amplifier characteristics.
The LTC1758-1 is identical in performance to the
LTC1758-2 except that only one control output (VPCA) is
available.TheLTC1758-1candriveasingleband(850MHz
to 2000MHz) or a dual RF channel module with an
internal mulitplexer. Several manufacturers offer dual RF
channel modules with an internal mulitplexer.
Power ramp sidebands and power/time are also a factor
when ramping to zero power. For RF amplifiers requiring
highcontrolvoltages,itmaybenecessarytofurtheradjust
theDACrampprofile.Whenthepowerisrampeddownthe
loopwilleventuallyopenatpowerlevelsbelowtheLTC1758
detector threshold. The LTC1758 will then go open loop
and the output voltage at VPCA or VPCB will stop falling. If
this voltage is high enough to produce RF output power,
the power/time or power ramp sidebands may not meet
specification. This problem can be avoided by starting the
DAC ramp from 100mV (Figure 1). At the end of the cycle,
the DAC can be ramped down to 0mV. This applies a
negative signal to the LTC1758 thereby ensuring that the
VPCA/B outputs will ramp to 0V. The 100mV ramp step
must be applied at least 4µs before TXEN is asserted high
General Layout Considerations
The LTC1758-1/LTC1758-2 should be placed near the
directional coupler. The feedback signal line to the RF pin
should be a 50Ω transmission line with optional termina-
tion or a short line. If short-circuit protection is used,
bypass capacitors are required at VCC.
External Termination
The LTC1758 has an internal 200Ω termination resistor at
the RF pin. If a directional coupler is used, it is recom-
mended that an external 68Ω termination resistor be
connected between the RF coupling capacitor (33pF), and
ground at the side connected to the directional coupler. If
the termination is placed at the LTC1758 RF pin, then the
68Ω resistor must be connected to VIN since the detector
is referenced to VIN. Termination components should be
placed adjacent to the LTC1758.

Power Ramp Profiles
The external voltage gain associated with the RF channel
can vary significantly between RF power amplifier types.
The LTC1758 frequency compensation has been opti-
mized to be stable with several different power amplifiers
and manufacturers. This frequency compensation gener-
ally defines the loop dynamics that impact the power/time
response and possibly (slow loops) the power ramp
sidebands. The LTC1758 operates open loop until an RF
voltageappearsattheRFpin,atwhichtimetheloopcloses
and the output power follows the DAC profile. The RF
power amplifier will require a certain control voltage level
(threshold) before an RF output signal is produced. The
LTC1758 VPCA/B outputs must quickly rise to this thresh-
old voltage in order to meet the power/time profile. To
reduce this time, the LTC1758 starts at 600mV. However,

to allow the autozero to cancel the step. Slow DAC rise
times will extend this time by the additional RC time
constants.
1) The additional voltage gain supplied by the RF power
amplifier increases the loop gain raising poles normally
below the 0dB axis. The extra voltage gain can vary
significantly over input/output power ranges, frequency,
power supply, temperature and manufacturer. RF power
amplifier gain control transfer functions are often not
available and must be generated by the user. Loop oscil-
lations are most likely to occur in the midpower range
where the external voltage gain associated with the RF
power amplifier typically peaks. It is useful to measure the
oscillation or ringing frequency to determine whether it
corresponds to the expected loop bandwidth and thus is
due to high gain bandwidth.
Another factor that affects power ramp sidebands is the
DAC signal to PCTL. The bandwidth of the LTC1758 may
notbelowenoughtoadequatelyfilteroutstepsassociated
with the DAC. If the baseband chip does not have an
internal filter, it is recommended that a 1-stage external
filter be placed between the DAC output and the PCTL pin.
Resistor values should be kept below 2k since the PCTL
input resistance is 90k. A typical filter scheme is shown in
Figure 2.
The power control ramp should be started in the range of
1µs to 10µs after TXEN is asserted high.
2) Loop voltage losses supplied by the directional coupler
will improve phase margin. The larger the directional
coupler loss the more stable the loop will become. How-
ever, larger losses reduce the RF signal to the LTC1758
and detector performance may be degraded at low power
levels. (See RF Detector Characteristics.)

3) Additional poles within the loop due to filtering or the
turn-on response of the RF power amplifier can degrade
the phase margin if these pole frequencies are near the
effectiveloopbandwidthfrequency. Generallyloopsusing
RF power amplifiers with fast turn-on times have more
phase margin. Extra filtering below 16MHz should never
be placed within the control loop, as this will only degrade
phase margin.

Demo Board
The LTC1758 demo board is available upon request. The
demo board has a 900MHz and an 1800MHz RF channel
controlled by the LTC1758. Timing signals for TXEN are
generated on the board using a 13MHz crystal reference.
The PCTL power control pin is driven by a 10-bit DAC and
the DAC profile can be loaded via a serial port. The serial
port data is stored in a flash memory which is capable of
storingeightrampprofiles.Theboardissuppliedpreloaded
withfourGSMpowerprofilesandfourDCSpowerprofiles
covering the entire power range. External timing signals
can be used in place of the internal crystal controlled
timing. A variety of RF power amplifiers are available.
4) Control loop instability can also be due to open loop
issues. RF power amplifiers should first be characterized
in an open loop configuration to ensure self oscillation is
not present. Self-oscillation is often related to poor power
supply decoupling, ground loops, coupling due to poor
layout and extreme VSWR conditions. The oscillation fre-
quency is generally in the 100kHz to 10MHz range. Power
supplyrelatedoscillationsuppressionrequireslargevalue
ceramic decoupling capacitors placed close to the RF
powerampsupplypins.Therangeofdecouplingcapacitor
values is typically 1nF to 3.3µF.
LTC1758 Control Loop Stability
The LTC1758 provides a stable control loop for several RF
power amplifier models from different manufacturers
over a wide range of frequencies, output power levels and
VSWR conditions. However, there are several factors that
can improve or degrade loop frequency stability.
5) Poor layout techniques associated with the directional
coupler area may result in high frequency signals bypass-
ing the coupler. This could result in stability problems due
to the reduction in the coupler loss.

Determining External Loop Gain and Bandwidth
to supply enough feedback voltage to the RF pin to cancel
this 100mV step which would be the required detected
voltage of 60mV. VPCA changed from 1.498V to 1.540V to
create the RF output power change required. The net
external voltage gain contributed by the RF power ampli-
fier and directional coupler network can be calculated by
dividing the 60mV change at the RF pin by the 42mV
changeattheVPCA pin.Thenetexternalvoltagegainwould
then be approximately 1.4. The loop bandwidth extends to
1.4 • BW1. If BW1 is 250kHz, the loop bandwidth in-
creases to approximately 350kHz. The phase margin is
extracted from Figure 3. Repeat the above voltage gain
measurement over the full power and frequency range.
The external loop voltage gain contributed by the RF chan-
nelanddirectionalcouplernetworkshouldbemeasuredin
a closed loop configuration. A voltage step is applied to
PCTL and the change in VPCA (or VPCB) is measured. The
detected voltage is 0.6 • PCTL for PCTL < 640mV and
1.18PCTL–0.38VforPCTL>640mV. Theexternalvoltage
gain contributed by the RF power amplifier and directional
coupler network is 0.6 • ∆VPCTL/∆VVPCA and (1.18PCTL –
0.38V) • ∆VPCTL/∆VPCA. Measuring voltage gain in the
closed loop configuration accounts for the nonlinear de-
tector gain that is dependent on RF input voltage and
frequency.
The phase margin degradation, due to external and inter-
nal pole combinations, is difficult to determine since
complex poles are present. Gain peaking may occur,
resulting in higher bandwidth and lower phase margin
than predicted from the open loop Bode plot. A low
frequencyACSPICEmodeloftheLTC1758powercontrol-
ler is included to better determine pole and zero interac-
tions. The user can apply external gains and poles to
determinebandwidthandphasemargin.DC,transientand
RF information cannot be extracted from the present
model. The model is suitable for external gain evaluations
up to 6×. The 350kHz PCTL input filter limits the band-
width, therefore, use the RF input as demonstrated in the
model.
The LTC1758 unity gain bandwidth specified in the data
sheet assumes that the net voltage gain contributed by the
RF power amplifier and directional coupler is unity. The
bandwidth is calculated by measuring the rise time be-
tween 10% and 90% of the voltage change at VPCA or VPCB
for a small step in voltage applied to PCTL.
BW1 = 0.35/rise time
TheLTC1758controlamplifierunitygainbandwidth(BW1)
is typically 250kHz. The phase margin of the control
amplifier is typically 90°.
For example, to determine the external RF channel loop
voltage gain with the loop closed, apply a 100mV step to
PCTL from 300mV to 400mV. VPCA (or VPCB) will increase
