RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for the QPQ1290, a highly selective, low drift, BAW filter for full Band 41 TDD-LTE Tx/Rx. The Qorvo QPQ1290 has excellent WiFi rejection of 39dB at WiFI channel 11, yet only 3.8dB in-band insertion loss. Performance is rated over -20 to +85 degrees Celsius. Available in a RoHS compliant, 1.8×1.4mm SMT package, return loss of the QPQ1290 is 9dB.
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for a 2W power amplifier from Qorvo. The TQP9111 covers 1.8 to 2.7GHz for a variety of applications in wireless infrastructure and defense communications including BTS transceivers, repeaters and L-band radios. 2-stages of amplification with integrated interstage matching provide almost 30dB of gain while the TQP9111 provides an OIP3 of 46dBm. Complete with a shutdown mode for improved system performance, the Qorvo TQP9111 draws 545mA from a 5V supply and is offered in a 20-pin, 4x4mm QFN package.
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for SMA terminations from P1dB. The P1TR-SAM family offers three variations. Each can handle up to 2W of power, acceptable for most test and measurement applications. The P1TR-SAM-26G2W supports requirements up to 26GHz while the P1TR-SAM-18G2W covers 18GHz set ups and the P1TR-SAM-6G2W provides performance to 6GHz. Each of the three terminations have stainless steel bodies and coupling nuts for durability and long life. Typically available with stock delivery, the P1dB terminations are ideal for cost conscious production environments.
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for Skyworks high isolation switches developed for IoT (Internet of Things) applications. The new family features the SKY13522-644LF SPDT, the SKY13523-639LF SP3T and SKY13524-639LF SP4T. All 3 switches support operation from 700 to 3000MHz. Designed using SOI processing, these switches consume less than 10uA of current. Built-in decoders limit the number of GPIO lines needed for control. Setting these switches apart is their high isolation, averaging 47dB @ 2GHz, and high IIP3 of 56dB. Capable of handling 23dBm input power, these Skyworks switches are extremely small. The SKY13522-644LF, SPDT, is offered in a…
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for the PE4152, a high linearity RF mixer from Peregrine Semiconductor. Designed for land mobile radio (LMR) and cellular infrastructure up to 1GHz, the PE4152 offers two operating modes: LO enable and LO bypass. LO enable provides 25dBm IIP3 with 52dBm IIP2. LO bypass provides 24dBm IIP3 with 46dBm IIP2. Both modes provide low conversion loss of 6.5dB. This mixer can be used as either an upconverter or downconverter. Current consumption is only 9.5mA. Peregrine offers the PE4152 in a 4x4mm QFN package.
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for the Qorvo TQL9093 ultra low noise amplifier featuring flat gain. Capable of operation from 600 to 4200MHz, the TQL9093 is optimized for wireless infrastructure applications spanning 1500 to 4000MHz and offers >19dB of gain +/-0.5dB over this span. Midband OIP3 is 41.5dBm while Noise Figure is as low as 0.54dB. The TQL9093 has adjustable bias with a standard bias rating of 120mA from a 5V supply.
