The Qorvo® QM33120WDK1 is a development kit for the low power, low cost QM33110W and QM33120W UWB transceivers.
This kit can be used to evaluate the hardware performance of the devices in TWR, TDoA and AoA systems and can help to build an evaluation real time location system (RTLS). It also enables the development of applications based on DW3110, DW3120, DW3210, DW3220 UWB transceivers.
It includes two different daughter boards (AoA and non-AoA) mounted on two Nordic nRF52840 DK evaluation boards. Application firmware development is facilitated by the features of the Nordic boards such as on-board J-Link debugger, USB and Bluetooth® Low Energy interfaces.
The QM33120WDK1 is designed to develop applications compatible with PHY and MAC FiRa™ specifications.
Typical Applications
- High precision real time location systems
- Location-aware wireless sensor networks
- Asset tracking
- Factory / warehouse automation & security
- Healthcare staff & patient location
- Retail security, navigation & customer analytics
- Connected home

Qorvo offers two development kits : DW3xxx & QM3xxx SDK v1.0.2 and Qorvo_Nearby_Interaction.
DW3xxx & QM3xxx SDK v1.0.2 (Released November 2024) facilitates the development of products using the DW3110, DW3120, DW3210, DW3220, QM33110W, QM33120W, and DWM3001C module.
This SDK is compatible with four hardware development kits: QM33120WDK1, DWM3001CDK, DWM3000EVB and Murata Type2AB.
It contains sample applications, embedded firmwares, documentation, scripts and a GUI for quick evaluation.
The Qorvo_Nearby_Interaction to easily evaluate and develop new applications based on location, distance and direction relative to a U1 & U2-equipped iPhone. It contains FiRa Compliant libraries, a sample application, mobile applications and related documentations.
The Nearby Interaction Compliant Software enables developers to easily evaluate and develop new applications based on location, distance and direction relative to a U1 & U2-equipped iPhone.
