GC5322 Processor

Wideband Digital Pre-distortion Transmit IC Solution

Discover next-generation digital radio functionality. The GC5322 wireless transmit processor from Texas Instruments combines a digital upconverter, crest factor reduction and digital pre-distortion functions on a single device, improving the efficiency of multicarrier power amplifiers (PAs).

The GC5322 linearizes the output of the PA in the transmit signal chain, eliminating the need for more costly high-performance RF power amplifier components. By utilizing this incredible processor, engineers can drastically reduce power amplifier requirements to meet the cost, linearity and efficiency goals of next-generation architectures.
