    The Qorvo QPM1000 is an integrated limiter/LNA providing robust, high performance over the 2–20GHz frequency range. The QPM1000 delivers 17 dB small signal gain with gain control and > 18 dBm P1dB with a range of noise figure of 1.7 – 4 dB across frequency. In addition, the integrated limiter provides a robustness level of up to 4 W of incident power without performance degradation.

    The QPM1000 is packaged in an air cavity, laminate-based 6 x 5 mm QFN for easy handling. With a small form factor coupled with both ports matched to 50 ohms and DC blocked, the QPM1000 is ideally suited to support both commercial and defense related applications where robust receiver front ends are required.

    Lead-free and RoHS compliant.

    Evaluation boards are available upon request.

    X-Microwave Design System

    This product is available as an X-Microwave Block (X-MWblock) for evaluation.

    X-MWblocks are RF and microwave "drop-in" components that can be used individually for prototyping or in production assemblies. X-MWblocks are easy to test, integrate, align, and configure to 60 GHz and beyond. No messy sweat soldering or silver epoxy processes are required. X-MWblocks are highly characterized with S-parameter models and connect with a patented solder-less interconnect technology.
