RFMD’s new RF5836 provides a complete integrated solution in a single front end module (FEM) for WiFi 802.11a/n systems. The ultra-small form factor and integrated matching minimizes the layout area in the customer's application and greatly reduces the number of external components. The RF5836 integrates a power amplifier (PA), single-pole double-throw switch (SP2T), and a power detector coupler for improved accuracy. The device is provided in a 3mm × 3mm × 0.5mm, 16-pin package. This module meets or exceeds the RF front end needs of IEEE 802.11a/n WiFi RF systems.
