    The Qorvo® QPF4632 is an integrated front end module (FEM) designed for Wi-Fi 6 & 6E (802.11ax) systems. The small form factor and integrated matching minimizes layout area in the application.

    Performance is focused on optimizing the PA for a 3.3 V supply voltage that conserves power consumption while maintaining the highest linear output power and leading edge throughput. This is done across a wide bandwidth enabling operation in all channels from UNII5-8 (5.9 to 7.1 GHz) on the fly without the need for any logic switching.

    Integrated die level filtering for 2nd and 3rd harmonics as well as 2.4 GHz rejection for DBDC operation are included. A coupler RF power detector as well as a voltage detector are provided for application feedback.

    The QPF4632 integrates a 5, 9 - 7.1 GHz power amplifier (PA), single pole two throw switch (SP2T) and bypassable low noise amplifier (LNA) into a single device.
