2.4 GHz SOI IoT Front-End Module from pSemi

The PE562212’s ultra-compact design provides PCB space savings and easier board routing with 50-ohm I/O interfaces requiring no external matching. The FEM also offers excellent ESD and ruggedness for all intended applications and environmental conditions inherent to the IoT space. It is designed for ease of use and maximum flexibility.

Key Features

It is manufactured on pSemi’s UltraCMOS® process, a patented advanced form of silicon-on insulator (SOI) technology.

  • Integrated PA with up to +21 dBm output power
  • Digital gain control with 15 dB range, 1 dB steps
  • Integrated LNA (1.6 dB NF, 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
  • Minimal external components required (bypass cap on VCC and VDD)
  • Packaging – Ultra-compact 14-lead 1.8 × 1.8 × 0.63 mm LGA (MSL3)

Applications

It is designed with both efficiency and linearity in mind as it enables higher data rate applications such as Wi-Fi, striking the delicate balance of adequate linear power with power efficiency.
