Qorvo QPF4532 5.0GHz Wi-Fi® 6 Front End Module
Qorvo QPF4532 5.0GHz Wi-Fi® 6 Front End Module (FEM) is optimized for IEEE 802.11ax systems. The QPF4532 features a 5150MHz to 5850MHz frequency range, up to 31dB transmit gain, and a low 2dB noise figure. This highly integrated device combines a 5.0GHz power amplifier (PA), regulator, single pole double throw switch (SPDT), and a bypassable low noise amplifier (LNA) into a single package. The compact form factor and integrated matching of the QPF4532 minimizes the layout area in the application.
The performance of the QPF4532 is focused on optimizing the PA for a 3.3V supply voltage. This feature conserves power consumption while maintaining high linear output power and leading-edge throughput. The receive path matches the optimal technologies to maximize Rx sensitivity through noise figure performance consistent over a wider variety of conditions. Integrated die level filtering for 2nd and 3rd harmonics, and 2.4GHz rejection for DBDC operation, are included. For application feedback, a DC power detector is integrated into the package providing a voltage proportional to the output power from the transmit path.
The Qorvo QPF4532 5.0GHz Wi-Fi 6 FEM is offered in a compact 2.5mm x 2.5mm laminate package.
