Front-End Modules

Skyworks' SKY66403-11, SKY66404-11, SKY66405-11, and SKY66112-11 are 2.4 GHz front-end Modules for Zigbee®, Thread, and Bluetooth® Applications.

The SKY85817-11 is a highly integrated, dual-band front-end module (FEM) that supports simultaneous 5G WLAN and licensed assisted access (LAA) systems. This FEM incorporates a 5 GHz power amplifier (PA), a 5 GHz low-noise amplifier (LNA) with bypass supporting 5G WLAN and LAA simultaneous RX reception, and a single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) transmit/receive (T/R) switch.

Skyworks DRx front-end-modules have been designed to improve receiver sensitivity and data throughput in 3G/4G multimode cellular tablets and handsets, while also reducing Rx noise figure. The FEMs are comprised of low loss RF switches, as well as receive SAW filters and low noise amplifiers.

Skyworks offers the SKY55501-11 as a highly integrated, 5 GHz front-end module (FEM) that supports simultaneous 5G WLAN and licensed assisted access (LAA) systems. It incorporates a 5 GHz low-noise amplifier (LNA) with bypass supporting 5G WLAN and LAA simultaneous RX reception, and a single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) transmit/receive (T/R) switch.

Skyworks offers the SKY58277-11 Sky5 Front-End Module (FEM) for LTE and NR is a new addition to the Skyworks Sky5 portfolio of 5G technology products. The included 30-pad surface mount (SMT) module consists of PA blocks, input and output ports matched to 50 ohms, a MIPI standard digital control block, single-ended filter, antenna, and Tx-Rx switches, and a low noise amplifier (LNA).

Avago Technologies’ GPS Filter-LNA-Filter Front-End Module: ALM-2712 is an ultra low-noise GPS front-end module that combines a low-noise amplifier (LNA) with GPS FBAR filters. The LNA uses Avago Technologies’ proprietary GaAs Enhancement-mode pHEMT process to achieve high gain with very low noise figure and high linearity.

Skywork’s SKYA21040 and SKYA21041 are front end modules comprising a single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) switch (41) or a single-pole, triple-throw (SP3T) switch (40) and a low-noise amplifier (LNA) with a bypass mode. 

Skyworks offers the SKY85772-11 as a highly integrated 5 GHz front-end module (FEM) designed for portable 802.11ax applications and systems. Features include a fully matched input and output, integrated logarithmic power detector and directional coupler, a transmit gain of 32 dB, and a receive gain of 15 dB.
