Front-End Modules

The SKY85334-11 and SKY85750-11 are 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz front-end modules (FEMs) respectively, and compliment Skyworks' expansive portfolio of FEMs designed for growing retail, carrier and enterprise Wi-Fi 6 applications. The modules offer high linearity, low power dissipation, and efficiency for access points, routers and gateways where regulatory, thermals or Power-over-Ethernet limitations demand low current consumption. These highly integrated FEMs incorporate switching, low-noise amplifier (LNA) with bypass and power amplifier (PA) and are housed in a compact package. 

The QPF4010 is a high frequency, high performance MMIC front-end module targeted for 5G - n258 at 26 GHz phased array base stations and terminals. It is fabricated on Qorvo's 90 nm pHEMT production process and combines a low noise high linearity LNA, a low insertion-loss high-isolation TR switch, and a high-efficiency multi-stage PA.

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.

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.

The SKY53761-11 is a highly integrated LNA filter module that enables users to support 5G New Radio (NR) bands in the 3.3 to 4.2 GHz frequency range.

The SKY58085-11 is a mid- and high-band front end module (FEM) designed to support 3G/4G/5G mobile devices and operate efficiently in 3G/4G/5G modes. This model meets stringent 5G NR and LTE advanced requirements where wider bandwidth and carrier aggregation are utilized for high data rates.

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

Qorvo offers the new QPB9318 highly integrated front-end module with operation in the 2.3 – 2.8 GHz frequency range for TDD base station, wireless infrastructure, small cell BTS, and pre-5G/5G massive MIMO applications. This LNA module integrates a two-stage LNA and a high power switch in a dual-channel configuration.
