Front-End Modules

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

Skyworks offers a range of 2.4 GHz Front-End Modules designed to provide all the functionality of a fully matched power amplifier, power detector, harmonic filter, low-noise amplifier (LNA), and single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) switch in one device.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Qorvo offers the QPF4530 integrated front end module (FEM) for Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) systems. The QPF4530 integrates a 5 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 its application.

The QPB9378 is a highly integrated RF front-end module targeted for 5G TDD base stations. The module integrates a two-stage LNA and a high-power SPDT switch in a dual-channel configuration. 

Qorvo introduces the new QPM1002 GaN MMIC front-end module (FEM) designed specifically for X-band radar applications in the 8.5 – 10.5 GHz frequency range. Combining a T/R switch, low-noise amplifier, and a power amplifier, this device delivers a small signal gain of 33 dB, delivers 3 W of saturated power, and 25 dB of large signal gain.
