Front-End Modules

PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

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).

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 QPF4219 integrated front end module (FEM) for Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) systems. The QPF4219 integrates a 2.4 GHz power amplifier (PA), regulator, single pole two throw switch (SP2T), bypassable low noise amplifier (LNA) and DC power detector into a single device. With a compact form factor and integrated matching, this module minimizes the layout area required for its application.

Qorvo presents a new series of high-linearity 2.5 GHz Front-End Modules (FEMs) built for automotive Wi-Fi applications, 802.11b/g/n, and Bluetooth® systems. These devices feature integrated b/g/n power amplifiers, directional power detectors, RX balun, and TX filtering. Each FEM contains an ultra-small form factor and integrated matching that greatly reduces the number of external components and layout area in the customer application.

The Qorvo® QPF4211 is an integrated medium power front end module (FEM) designed for Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) systems. The small form factor and integrated matching minimizes layout area in the application.

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 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 QPF4001 from Qorvo is a multi-function GaN MMIC front-end module (FEM) ideally utilized for 28 GHz phased array 5G base stations and terminals. This device operates over the 26 to 30 GHz frequency range, and combines a low noise, high linearity LNA, a low insertion loss, high isolation TR switch, and a high gain, high efficiency multi-stage PA.
