RFFM8506 Datasheet, PDF (1/9 Pages) RF Micro Devices – 4.9GHz to 5.85GHz 802.11a/n/ac WiFi Front End Module

RFFM8506
4.9GHz to 5.85GHz 802.11a/n/ac WiFi
Front End Module
The RFFM8506 provides a complete integrated solution in a single front
end module (FEM) for WiFi 802.11a/n/ac systems. The ultra-small factor
and integrated matching minimizes layout area in the customer’s
application and greatly reduces the number of external components.
This simplifies the total front end solution by reducing the bill of
materials, system footprint, and manufacturing cost. The RFFM8506
integrates a 5 GHz power amplifier (PA), single pole double throw switch
(SP2T) and an LNA with bypass. The device is provided in a 2.5mm x
2.5mm x 0.45mm, 16-pin QFN package. This module meets or exceeds
the RF front end needs of IEEE 802.11a/n/ac WiFi RF systems.
