What made you select this product to feature? How does this product differentiate from others/what value does it offer?
The increasing complexity of wireless IoT devices demands highly integrated front-end solutions that optimize power efficiency, size, and performance across multiple communication protocols. The pSemi PE562212 is a 2.4 GHz SOI-based Front-End Module (FEM) that addresses these challenges by providing seamless operation across Thread, Zigbee®, Bluetooth®, and Wi-Fi® applications. By incorporating a fully monolithic power amplifier (PA), low-noise amplifier (LNA), and switch, this FEM delivers exceptional RF performance in an ultra-compact 1.8 × 1.8 mm LGA package, minimizing board space while reducing the need for external components.
What are the key features and specifications of the PE562212?
- Fully monolithic high-performance PA, LNA, switch
- Linear PA with up to +21 dBm output power
- Tx digital gain control with 15 dB range, 1 dB steps
- Excellent Rx NF (1.6 dB, typ.) with low-loss bypass path (0.6 dB, typ.)
- Bluetooth BDR (+21 dBm) and EDR (+15 dBm) operation
- Low-to-medium throughput Wi-Fi® (MCS7) capability
What are the common markets and applications of the pSemi PE562212?
The PE562212 is ideal for the following markets/applications:
- Smart speakers
- Smart lighting
- Smart thermostats
- In-home appliances
- Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices
- Range extenders
- Wireless audio
