Front-End Modules

The NW-RF-GPS-FE is a satellite terminal RF front end module designed to provide 20 Watts of RF power to boost the performance of data links in a number of applications including GPS, RF telemetry, unmanned systems and vehicles, satellite terminals, and software defined radios. This high-performance RF front end is a powerful combination of the NuPower 13G05A RF power amplifier, low noise figure LNAs, a high isolation diplexer between the transmit and receive paths, and band-reject filters.

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.

The SKY53746-11 is a diversity receive module and is scalable to support two CA MIMO regional and roaming band requirements. The SKY53746-11 is part of our Sky5 product portfolio. 

Qorvo’s integrated front end modules (FEMs) are included with a compact form factor and integrated matching that minimizes the layout area in Wi-Fi 802.11 a/n/ac and 802.11 b/g/n system applications. Their performance is focused on conserving power consumption while maintaining the highest linear output power and leading edge throughput.

he QPM2637 is a Gallium Nitride MMIC front-end module (FEM) designed for X-Band radar applications within the 9-10.5 GHz range. The MMIC combines a T/R switch, low-noise amplifier, and a power amplifier. The receive path has dual-outputs which offer 21dB gain and 2.7dB noise figure. The transmit path delivers 4W of saturated power with 23dB large signal gain. The FEM is robust up to 4W of input power into the ANT port eliminating the need for a limiter.

Qorvo offers the QPF4288 integrated front end module (FEM) for Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) systems. The QPF4530 integrates a 2.4 GHz power amplifier (PA), regulator, single pole two throw switch (SP2T), bypassable low noise amplifier (LNA) into a single device. With a compact form factor and integrated matching, this module minimizes the layout area required for an number of wireless and IoT applications.

QPF0219 is a multi-chip Front-End Module (FEM) designed for 2-18 GHz Wide-Band radar applications. The FEM integrates a T/R switch, a limiter, a low-noise amplifier and a power amplifier.

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.
