2.4 GHz front-end module extends range by 4x
The FEM features an integrated power amplifier with up to +21 dBm output power and operates over a supply voltage of 1.8 to 3.6V. It also includes LNA and antenna diversity switching for all modes and comes in a compact multichip module package (22-pin, 3.5 x 3.0 x 1.0 mm). It offers a transmit mode with high linearity that supports higher data rates and music streaming. This device extends range up to 4X when compared to standalone system-on-chip (SoC) solutions. The device is designed for ease of use and maximum flexibility for Internet of Things (IoT) applications, particularly within the connected home, wearables and M2M markets. This module is also suitable for coin cell battery devices, security and environmental sensors, wireless audio platforms, in-home appliances, smart thermostats and lighting systems.
