Skyworks Solutions Inc of Woburn, MA, USA (which manufactures analog and mixed-signal semiconductors) has launched the SKY85309-11, which is claimed to be the industry’s highest-power, fully integrated front-end module (FEM) for 802.11ac Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
The new FEM incorporates a 2.4GHz single-pole double-throw (SPDT) transmit/receive switch, a low-noise amplifier (LNA) with bypass and a power amplifier. It features high gain (32dB) to improve system-on-chip (SoC) linearity and includes a receive filter port for co-existence filters without loss on the transmit path.
The FEM reduces costs by meeting maximum FCC EIRP requirements with only two streams, and it is supplied in a compact, 24-pin 3mm x 5mm quad flat no-lead (QFN) package. The feature-rich device is suitable for IoT applications including access points, routers and gateways.
