Skyworks launches 5GHz front-end module for WLAN and LAA
Skyworks Solutions Inc of Woburn, MA, USA (which manufactures analog and mixed-signal semiconductors) has launched the SKY85774-11, a highly integrated 5GHz front-end module (FEM) that supports simultaneous WLAN and licensed assisted access (LAA) protocols for mobile smartphones and tablets.
The module incorporates a power amplifier, low-noise amplifier with bypass, and a single-pole double-throw (SPDT) transmit/receive switch. Its high-performance power amplifier increases range and saves power while eliminating external devices and reducing PCB area.
The SKY85774-11 comes in a compact 20-pin 2.2mm x 3mm package and is currently being leveraged across leading mobile connectivity reference designs.
