Front-End Modules

Qorvo offers a front end module (FEM) and two low noise amplifiers (LNAs) designed specifically for Wi-Fi applications such as access points and wireless routers.

Skyworks offer two new front-end modules (FEMs) for GNSS/GPS/GLONASS/Galileo/Compass/QZSS radio receiver applications in the 1559 to 1606 MHz frequency range. The SKY65933-11 and the SKY65943-11 feature an integrated low noise amplifier (LNA), and a pre-filter and post-filter. Both devices use surface-mount technology (SMT) in the form of a 2.5 x 2.5 mm Multi-Chip Module (MCM) package, which allows for a highly manufacturable and low-cost solution.

Skyworks offers the SKY85774-11 as a highly-integrated, 5 GHz front-end module comprised of a 5 GHz single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) transmit/receive switch, a 5 GHz low noise amplifier with bypass, and a 5 GHz power amplifier. The module is ideal for 802.11 as with LAA support smartphones and tablets, system-in-package (SIP) modules for embedded systems, and Wi-Fi enabled handsets, tablets, and mobile systems.

Skyworks offers the SKY66118-11 and the SKY66407-11, 2.4 GHz front-end modules (FEMs) for Bluetooth Internet of Things (IoT) applications including smartwatches, trackers, connected home systems, wireless and gaming headsets, and more.

Avago Technologies’ ALM-1712 is a 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.

The SKYA21043 is a highly integrated, 5 GHz front-end module (FEM) designed specifically for 802.11p V2V and V2X applications. The module incorporates a 5 GHz single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) transmit/receive (T/R) switch, a 5 GHz high-gain low-noise amplifier (LNA) with bypass, and a 5 GHz power amplifier (PA) intended for high-power 802.11p applications and systems.

The AFEM-7750 is a fully matched CDMA Front-End Module featuring the integration of Power Amplifier, Duplexer, Band-pass Filter and coupler.

Qorvo offers the QPF4551 integrated front end module (FEM) for Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) systems. With a compact form factor and integrated matching, this module minimizes the layout area required for its application. It is ideally used for access points, wireless routers, residential gateways, residential gateways, premise equipment, and Internet of Things applications.
