Skyworks Solutions, a global pioneer in wireless networking solutions, has recently added a few products to its RF front-end module (FEM) series. These innovative, ultra-high performance, and highly integrated FEMs are cost-optimized for multiple RF functions in one efficient, impactful package.
The SKY66422-11 is a high-performance, highly integrated RF front-end module designed for high-power Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) band applications operating in the 860 to 930 MHz frequency range. It is designed for ease of use and maximum flexibility with fully matched 50 Ω TX and RX inputs, and digital controls compatible with 1.6 to 3.6 V CMOS levels. The RF blocks operate over a wide supply voltage range from 2.5 to 3.6 V allowing the SKY66422-11 to be used in battery-powered applications over a wide spectrum of the battery discharge curve. This RF front-end module is packaged in a 16-pin, 3.0 x 3.0 x 0.75 mm Multi-Chip Module (MCM) package and is ideal for LP-WAN devices, Internet of Things (IoT), smart meters, industrial applications, and range extenders.
The SKY66423-11 is a high-performance, highly integrated RF front-end module designed for high-power Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) band applications operating in the 860 to 930 MHz frequency range. The SKY66423-11 is designed for ease of use and maximum flexibility with fully matched 50 Ù TX and RX inputs and antenna outputs, and digital controls compatible with 1.6 to 3.6 V CMOS levels. The RF blocks operate over a wide supply voltage range from 2.0 to 4.8 V allowing the SKY66423-11 to be used in battery-powered applications over a wide spectrum of the battery discharge curve. The SKY66423-11 is packaged in a 16-pin Multi-Chip Module (MCM) package and is suitable for LP-WAN devices, Internet of Things (IoT), smart meters, industrial applications, and range extenders.
The SKY66408-11 is a high-performance, fully integrated RF front-end module designed for Zigbee technology, Thread, and devices with a port suitable for Bluetooth (including low energy) applications. The SKY66408-11 is designed for ease of use and maximum flexibility. The device provides an integrated inter-stage matching and harmonic filter, and digital controls compatible with 1.2 V to 3.6 V CMOS levels. The RF blocks operate over a wide supply voltage range from 1.7 V to 3.6 V which allows the SKY66408-11 to be used in battery-powered applications over a wide spectrum of the battery discharge curve. It finds application in smart thermostats, in-home appliances, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, smart lighting, sensors, range extenders, and wireless audio.
The SKY66431-11 is a multi-band multi-chip System-in-Package (SiP) supporting 5G Massive IoT (LTE-M/NB-IoT) platforms. This SiP is a compact LTE modem and RF front-end in a single package that integrates the entire RF front-end, transceiver, power management, memory, crystals, and baseband modem for an LTE multi-band radio operating in the 698 MHz to 2200 MHz frequency range. NOR flash, and a few passives external to the package complete the SiP implementation. It benefits from positioning over LTE (PoLTE), a low-power, cloud-based solution for indoor/outdoor positioning. This SiP has an embedded low-power GNSS solution eliminating the need for an external GNSS chipset for intermittent tracking. It has an extremely low leakage internal power management unit (PMU) that enables operability for 20 years. This SiP is suitable for personal/pet tracking, eBike tracking, industrial asset tracking, smart metering, wearable medical devices, security/alarm systems, fleet management, industrial monitoring devices, and low-power IoT devices.
