The SKY85788-11 from Skyworks is a Wi-Fi 6E Front-End Module that operates from 5.945 to 7.125 GHz. It is based on Skyworks’ ICE technology and has an integrated 6 GHz non-linear power amplifier (PA), high-gain low-noise amplifier (LNA) with bypass mode, and 6 GHz single-pole double-throw (SPDT) transmit/receive (T/R) switch. This module provides a receive gain of 15 dB, has an AM/AM distortion of 5 dB, and an AM/PM distortion of 5°. It features a logarithmic power detector to provide closed-loop power control within the system and a temperature-compensated log detector. The LNA and PA disable functions ensure low leakage current in the off mode for increased efficiency.
This FEM is ideal for wireless audio/video, rotors & gateways, indoor and outdoor Wi-Fi 6E networking systems, and WLAN-enabled wireless video streaming systems.
