MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR Обзор

The NXP/Freescale MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR is a 100 W, multi-stage RF LDMOS wideband integrated power amplifier designed for cellular base-station transmitters operating from 869 MHz to 960 MHz, packaged in a TO-272 WB-14 (flat-lead variant) over-molded plastic power package. It is specified for 26 V typical operation (rated 26 to 32 V), delivers 33.5 dB small-signal gain, and uses on-chip input and output matching that eliminates the external discrete matching networks required by older discrete LDMOS reference designs.

A power amplifier (PA) is the final active RF stage in a transmitter chain that boosts a low-amplitude modulated signal from the exciter up to a transmission-line level suitable for radiation by the antenna. In cellular base-station links, the PA sits between the driver amplifier/digital pre-distortion (DPD) loop and the duplexer/filter. Within the broader system taxonomy this part is a discrete RF semiconductor -> RF power transistor -> LDMOS power IC -> wireless-infrastructure PA. LDMOS (Laterally Diffused Metal-Oxide Semiconductor) remains the dominant cellular-infrastructure PA technology because of its high power density, mature supply chain, and lower cost-per-watt than equivalent GaN devices at sub-3 GHz.

Key performance features include 100 W CW / typical Pout, 33.5 dB gain at 960 MHz, GSM/GSM-EDGE modulation compatibility per the NXP datasheet, on-chip matching on both RF ports, integrated ESD protection on the gate, and a thermally-enhanced TO-272 WB-14 flange that provides low thermal resistance to the system heatsink. The -FR suffix indicates the factory tape-and-reel pack-and-ship orientation supplied to high-volume SMT-compatible base-station OEM lines.

The MWE6IC9100N uses a cascade of two LDMOS gain stages biased in Class-AB, with on-chip inter-stage matching. The 869-960 MHz band covers all global GSM-900 uplink and downlink paths used in cellular macro and micro base stations, which lets one BOM line support multi-region deployments.

Typical applications include 900 MHz GSM/EDGE macro base stations, GSM-900 micro and pico cells, repeater and booster final stages, public-safety Land Mobile Radio (LMR) base stations operating near 900 MHz, and industrial/scientific RF heating links. The integrated matching shortens RF board-design cycles from weeks to days and significantly reduces the BOM.

When designing with this part, mount the flange to a machined or copper heatsink with thermal compound and use 50-ohm microstrip or stripline transitions off the RF leads. Always evaluate linearity (ACLR, EVM) with the intended modulation and apply DPD where required to meet spectral mask and efficiency targets.

This page synthesizes distributor pricing, same-package drop-in alternatives, and design notes not found in the manufacturer datasheet, so an engineer can evaluate the part for a 900 MHz PA design without stitching together multiple sources.

Типичное применение

MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR подходит для 6 применениеs: GSM-900 Macro Base Station Final PA, GSM-EDGE Micro / Pico Cell Transmitter, 900 MHz LMR / Public-Safety Base Station PA, Cellular Repeater / Booster Final Stage, ISM 900 MHz Industrial / Scientific Links, Multi-Region Cellular Infrastructure OEM.

🌐

GSM-900 Macro Base Station Final PA

The MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR's 869-960 MHz coverage aligns directly with the GSM-900 uplink and downlink spectrum, making it a drop-in final-stage solution for 900 MHz macro base stations. Its 100 W CW Pout and 33.5 dB gain deliver the linear output power required for full-power GSM/EDGE carriers at typical sector configurations (typically 2-4 carriers per PA), while the on-chip input/output matching removes the discrete L/C inter-stage networks that older discrete-LDMOS reference designs demand. Operating from a 26 V rail paired with digital pre-distortion (DPD), the part achieves competitive efficiency at rated Pout while keeping ACLR margins in spec. The TO-272 WB-14 flange bolts directly to the rack heatsink, simplifying thermal design and reducing assembly steps at OEM volume.

📶

GSM-EDGE Micro / Pico Cell Transmitter

Lower-power micro and pico cell radios supporting 900 MHz GSM-EDGE deployments reuse the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR at reduced drive levels, taking advantage of the part's wide gain-bandwidth and on-chip matching to shrink the RF BOM. Operating at 26 V with Pout dialed back to the 20-40 W range, the device still maintains good linearity and efficiency, which is critical when the small-cell enclosure cannot dissipate the heat of a continuously saturated PA. The 33.5 dB gain also lets designers omit a separate driver stage, simplifying the TX chain. Compact SMD-friendly footprint plus tape-and-reel packing (the -FR suffix) supports high-volume SMT-assembly on small-cell PCBs.

📡

900 MHz LMR / Public-Safety Base Station PA

Land Mobile Radio networks operating in the 900 MHz band (federal, industrial, public-safety) need a robust RF PA that delivers 100 W with reasonable linearity at 26 V - exactly the operating envelope of the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR. The integrated matching means the LMR radio designer avoids the labor-intensive tuning of a discrete LDMOS amplifier, and the standard TO-272 WB-14 flange-mount package fits existing heatsink tooling. For analog FM, the device operates well below 1 dB compression; for P25 / DMR digital modulation, a moderate digital-predistortion loop is sufficient to meet spectral-mask requirements. The result is a wide-bandwidth part usable across multiple 900 MHz LMR channel plans.

📡

Cellular Repeater / Booster Final Stage

Repeaters and indoor-coverage boosters in the 900 MHz band require compact, matched power amplifiers that drop into existing RF modules without redesigning the matching network. The MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR's on-chip 50 ohm input and output matching shorten the repeater's RF board-design cycle from weeks to days. At 100 W Pout the device can drive a sector-coverage antenna or feed a multi-carrier booster's combiner chain, and the 33.5 dB gain removes the need for a separate driver amplifier. Designers should budget heatsink capacity for sustained operation at rated Pout since repeaters often run continuously at high duty cycle.

🏭

ISM 900 MHz Industrial / Scientific Links

Industrial and scientific wireless links operating in license-free or lightly licensed 900 MHz ISM allocations (902-928 MHz in the US and similar in other regions) overlap the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR's 869-960 MHz band. The 100 W continuous power supports long-range point-to-point telemetry, mining and oil-field SCADA links, and far-end booster stages where line-of-sight distances exceed several kilometers. The LDMOS technology and 26 V rail provide a rugged, mature supply chain versus GaN alternatives for this sub-3 GHz ISM usage, and the integrated matching keeps the BOM small - useful when the remote terminal must operate from solar/battery power with minimal serviceability.

🖥️

Multi-Region Cellular Infrastructure OEM

OEMs shipping base-station radios to multiple global regions benefit from a single PA that covers the entire GSM-900 spectrum rather than stocking band-specific variants. The MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR's 869-960 MHz coverage spans the EU GSM-900 band (880-960 MHz) and the APAC/AMPS-900 allocations (869-894 MHz) under one part number, with on-chip matching that shortens RF regulatory qualification for each region. Reducing SKU count lowers inventory carrying cost and simplifies the global BOM. Tape-and-reel packing supports high-volume automated assembly at OEM contract-manufacturer partners.

What is the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR used for?
The MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR is a 100 W integrated RF LDMOS power amplifier for the 869 to 960 MHz cellular band. According to the NXP datasheet MWE6IC9100N, it is designed for GSM and GSM-EDGE base-station final stages, and is equally suitable for LMR and repeater/booster links near 900 MHz. The on-chip matching removes external discrete networks and shortens RF board-design cycles.
What is the output power of the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR at 960 MHz?
The MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR delivers 100 W typical CW output power at 960 MHz from a 26 V supply. The DigiKey listing also confirms 100 W as the headline rating. The part is rated for 26 V to 32 V operation, which lets a designer trade off linearity margin against efficiency across the supply range.
What frequency band does MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR cover?
The MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR covers 869 MHz to 960 MHz, which fully spans the global GSM-900 cellular band per the NXP datasheet. This single-band coverage lets one BOM line serve multi-region 900 MHz macro and micro base-station deployments, simplifying logistics and sparing for OEMs.
What is the gain of MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR?
The MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR delivers 33.5 dB small-signal gain at 960 MHz. The two-stage LDMOS cascade plus on-chip matching produces gain comparable to older discrete reference designs, while eliminating the inter-stage matching components. This gain is sufficient for most base-station drive chains when preceded by a small pre-driver.
Does the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR include internal matching?
Yes. The NXP datasheet confirms that the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR includes on-chip matching on both the input and output, presenting an approximately 50 ohm impedance to the external circuitry. This eliminates the discrete L/C matching networks that older LDMOS reference designs required and significantly reduces the BOM.
What is the difference between MWE6IC9100NBR1 and MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR?
The MWE6IC9100NBR1 and MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR are the same NXP silicon in the same TO-272 WB-14 package; the -FR suffix designates the flat-lead tape-and-reel packing option suited to OEM automated-assembly lines. Electrical specifications - 100 W Pout, 33.5 dB gain at 960 MHz, 26 V operation - are identical across the two suffixes.
Where can I download the MWE6IC9100N datasheet PDF?
The official NXP datasheet MWE6IC9100N-2.pdf is hosted at https://www.nxp.com/assets/documents/data/en/data-sheets/MWE6IC9100N-2.pdf. It includes electrical specifications, application information, footprint details and design guidelines for the 869 to 960 MHz integrated power amplifier. The PDF is the authoritative source for layout and bias recommendations.
What is the best drop-in replacement for MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR?
The closest drop-in part in the same TO-272 WB-14 footprint from the same family is the MWE6IC9100GNR1, which NXP lists as a 'completely replace' alternative per FindIC - same terminals and packages, replacement does not require board modification. For a slightly higher-frequency variant, the MW5IC970NBR1 (960-970 MHz) sits in the same package family. Both retain the 26 V/100 W operating envelope.
How much does the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR cost?
Pricing as of 2026-10-16 varies by quantity break: typical distributor pricing on Heisener and Xecor shows a unit quote tier above $100 at low quantities, with volume pricing dropping as orders scale toward 1000 pieces. Because distributor stock is quote-driven, contact authorized NXP distributors (DigiKey, Mouser, Heisener) for an exact RFQ.
Is the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR in stock and what is the lead time?
As of 2026-10-16, DigiKey lists Rochester Electronics as an authorized stock source for the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR. Heisener reports in-stock inventory at the time of fetch. Lead time is typically quote-confirmed by distributor; for production planning, request a firm delivery date from your franchised NXP distributor.
What package does the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR use?
The MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR uses the TO-272 WB-14 over-molded plastic power package with 14 flat leads. The flange is the main thermal and RF-ground path; it must be bolted to a heatsink with thermal compound. The TO-272 WB-14 footprint is shared with the wider NXP MWE6IC family, which simplifies second-source qualification.
Is the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR suitable for GSM-EDGE modulation?
Yes. The NXP datasheet MWE6IC9100N-2 explicitly lists GSM and GSM EDGE modulation compatibility at 26 V typical operation. For tight ACLR/EVM margins at full Pout, pair the part with a digital pre-distortion (DPD) loop in the exciter chain to meet modern spectral-mask and efficiency targets.
How does the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR compare to the MWE6IC9080NBR1?
The MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR covers 869 to 960 MHz at 100 W, while the MWE6IC9080NBR1 is tuned for a narrower 920 to 960 MHz slice of the same band, also at 100 W. Both share the TO-272 WB-14 package, so electrically the two are near-drop-in; pick MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR for full GSM-900 coverage and MWE6IC9080NBR1 when the deployment band is narrower.
Does MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR work for 900 MHz LMR base stations?
Yes. The 869 to 960 MHz operating window overlaps the 900 MHz LMR allocations used by public-safety and industrial networks. The 100 W Pout and 26 V operation match typical LMR base-station transmitter requirements; verify emissions and spectral-mask conformance with the target modulation in evaluation before locking the BOM.
What supply voltage does MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR need?
The MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR is rated for 26 V to 32 V drain supply, with 26 V as the typical operating point per the NXP datasheet. At 26 V the part delivers 100 W Pout and full 33.5 dB gain. Designers can raise the rail toward 32 V for additional margin after re-validating thermal and load-pull performance in evaluation.

Руководство по выбору

Choose the MWE6IC9100NBR1-FR when you need a 100 W integrated RF LDMOS PA for the full 869-960 MHz GSM-900 band with the convenience of on-chip matching. Pick the same-family MWE6IC9100GNR1 if you want a multi-source drop-in alternate in the same TO-272 WB-14 package (FindIC marks it 'completely replace'). Pick MWE6IC9080GNR1 if your deployment band is limited to 920-960 MHz and you want a tighter match to that slice. Pick MW5IC970NBR1 / MW5IC970GNBR1 if your band sits at the upper 960-970 MHz end. All alternatives share the TO-272 WB-14 footprint, so PCB layout can be reused. For non-900 MHz designs, choose a different NXP MWE-series part rather than trying to retune this one - the on-chip matching networks are band-specific.

Ключевые отличия

  • Full 869-960 MHz band coverage in a single TO-272 WB-14 integrated PA (против MWE6IC9080GNR1)
  • On-chip input and output matching (против Discrete LDMOS reference designs (pre-2015 era))
  • 100 W CW Pout from a 26 V rail (против MWE6IC9100GNR1)
  • Tape-and-reel packing orientation (против MWE6IC9100NBR1 (non-FR))

Заметки по проектированию

Mount the TO-272 WB-14 flange to a machined aluminum or copper heatsink using thermal compound; the flange is the primary thermal path. Estimated steady-state Pdiss at 100 W Pout and 26 V supply is on the order of 50-70 W (PAE typically 50-60% for LDMOS class-AB at 900 MHz), so derate the heatsink to keep Tj below 200 C. Use a heatsink rating that holds case temperature below ~70 C in worst-case ambient.

Use 50-ohm microstrip or stripline transitions off the RF leads and keep the RFIN and RFOUT traces short and isolated. The integrated 50-ohm matching means external matching components are not required, but add DC-blocking and bias-tee networks on both RF ports when integrating with the rest of the TX chain. Place gate-bias decoupling capacitors close to the VGG1/VGG2 leads.

Do not exceed the 32 V maximum drain supply or the 100 W Pout target without re-validating load-pull and thermal performance. Avoid operating continuously at P1dB compression for digital modulations; pair the device with a DPD loop to meet ACLR/EVM targets. The -FR suffix denotes tape-and-reel packing only and has no impact on electrical specifications - the same evaluation board and bias settings apply as the MWE6IC9100NBR1.
