RFMW announces design and sales support for high frequency adapters from P1dB. The P1AD-24M29F is a 2.4mm Male to 2.92mm Female adapter operating to 40 GHz with a maximum VSWR of 1.25:1. Economically priced, this high performance, between-series adapter is used on test benches or in-box applications where reliable, repeatable connections are required. The adapter’s stainless steel body and rugged construction supports operating temperatures from -85 to 125 degrees Celsius making it useful in aerospace, lab, industrial and commercial applications. Available from stock or quick delivery.
RFMW announces design and sales support for a broadband gain block with differential output. The Qorvo QPA9124 gain block offers a 50 Ω single-ended input to 100 Ω differential output allowing direct interface with transceiver ADCs, thereby eliminating the need for a discrete balun. It is well suited for receive path gain stages in 5G m-MIMO BTS and is optimized for 3 to 5 GHz applications. With 20.5 dB of small signal gain and 34.5 dBm output 3rd order intercept (OIP3), the QPA9124 has excellent gain flatness of 0.5 dB over any 400 MHz bandwidth and a CMRR of 35…
RFMW announces design and sales support for high-performance, high power, Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) band-pass filter. The Qorvo QPQ1906 exhibits low loss in the Wi-Fi band (Channels 10 – 11) and high, near-in rejection in the 2.4 GHz lower frequency channels allowing simultaneous use of Wi-Fi, Zigbee, Thread or BLE channels. Specifically designed to enable unique use cases where sub-dividing usable channels within the available Wi-Fi spectrum becomes an advantage, bandBoost enhances operation from 2447-2472 MHz while extremely steep filter skirts reject channels 1 – 2. With power handling to +28 dBm average input power, the QPQ1906 supports access points,…
RFMW announces design and sales support for a WiFi 6 (802.11ax) front end module (FEM). Minimizing layout area, Qorvo’s QPF4800 integrates a 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz power amplifier (PA), regulator, two SP2T switches, diplexer, and 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bypassable low noise amplifiers (LNA). Optimizing the PAs for 5V supplies conserves DC power consumption while maintaining the highest linear RF output power and leading edge throughput. Applications include access points, routers, residential gateways and CPEs.
RFMW announces design and sales support for a dual-path, GaN transistor. Supporting 20 Watt or 40 Watt designs, Qorvo’s QPD0211 has two transistors housed in a 7 x 6 mm plastic package. This dual-path discrete GaN on SiC HEMT, single-stage power transistor operates from 2.5 to 2.7 GHz. Applicable for asymmetric Doherty applications in 5G Massive MIMO BTS, it can deliver PAVG of 7.6 W at +48 V operation. Device gain is 14.5 dB. The QPD0211 also supports active antennas and may be used as a macro, base station driver.
RFMW is cosponsoring an online symposium bringing together product experts from the world’s leading electronic component suppliers to deliver real answers to the key design challenge of these revolutionary times: how do you make your next product do things it’s never had to do before? Gather data. Communicate. Measure, detect and act. On June 10th, Reality.2020 will explore 5G solutions with companies such as Qorvo and Ampleon.

RFMW announces design and sales support for phase matched cable assemblies from P1dB. These cables can be purchased in pairs or higher volume ‘sets’ matched to +/- 1 picosecond from DC to 26.5 GHz. For example, the P1CA-SAMSAM-F140-36-PM-1PS cable assembly is 36 inches long and terminated with SMA male connectors. Made with low loss, phase stable F140 flexible cable, the small diameter (0.142 inch or 3.6mm) is ideal for test applications where matched cable sets are required. The F140 cable has a low density PTFE dielectric and 2 shield layers providing >90 dB effective shielding with a Velocity of Propagation…
RFMW announces design and sales support for a 5 GHz filter from Akoustis. The AKF-1950 utilizes Akoustis’ patented, XBAW technology with low insertion loss for high-performance RF filtering. Capable of handling up to 30 dBm of RF input power, this 5060.5 MHz bandpass filter offers 61 MHz passband (5030 to 5091 MHz) with 2 dB typical insertion loss. Applications for the AKF-1950 include RF filtering for unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) Control and Non-Payload Communications (CNPC). The device is assembled in a 2.5 x 2.0 mm ceramic package and is compatible with high volume, lead-free SMT soldering processes.
