QPF4230

2.4 GHz Wi-Fi 6 Front End Module

The Qorvo® QPF4230 is an integrated front end module (FEM) designed for Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) systems. The compact form factor and integrated matching minimizes layout area in the application.

Performance is focused on optimizing the PA for a 3.3V supply voltage that conserves power consumption while maintaining the highest linear output power and leading edge throughput. Receive path matches the optimal technologies to maximize Rx sensitivity through noise figure performance that is consistent over a wider variety of conditions. Integrated die level filtering for 2nd and 3rd harmonics as well as 5 GHz rejection for DBDC operation are included. For power control feedback, a DC power detector which has voltage output has been integrated.

The QPF4230 integrates a 2.4GHz power amplifier (PA), regulator, single pole three throw switch (SP3T), low noise amplifier (LNA) and coupler into a single device.
