STHVDAC-253M Antenna tuning circuit Datasheet production data Description The ST BST capacitance controller STHVDAC-253M is a high voltage digital to analog converter (DAC), specifically designed to control and meet the wide tuning bias voltage requirement of the BST tunable capacitances. It provides 3 independent high voltage outputs, thus having the capability to control 3 different capacitances. It is fully controlled through a RFFE serial interface. BST capacitances are tunable capacitances Lead-free, Flip Chip intended for use in mobile phone application, and (16 bumps) dedicated to RF tunable applications. These tunable capacitances are controlled through a bias voltage ranging from 0 to 25 V. The implementation of BST tunable capacitance in Features mobile phones enables significant improvement in terms of radiated performances, making the Dedicated ASIC to control BST tunable performance almost insensitive to the external capacitances environment.
