July 3, 2022 - Vanceer Electronics, a leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor focused on driving innovation in the industry, is now shipping Qorvo®'s QPF4532 Wi-Fi 6 integrated front-end module (FEM). The module is designed for the new Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) system for residential gateways, wireless routers, access points and Internet of Things (IoT) applications. 

The QPF4532 FEM from Vanceer Electronics integrates a 5.0 GHz power amplifier (PA), single blade double throw (SP2T) switch and bypassable low noise amplifier (LNA) in a single device. The device's power amplifier is optimized for 3.3 V supply voltage to reduce power consumption while maintaining high linear output power and excellent throughput. The design of the receive path is matched with advanced technology that allows the QPF4532 to significantly improve receive sensitivity, allowing noise factors as low as 2 dB and consistent performance in more diverse conditions. 

The QPF4532 incorporates chip-level second and third harmonic filtering, as well as 2.4 GHz rejection for dual-band dual-transmission (DBDC) operation. The device is available in a halogen-free, lead-free package with an integrated DC power detector that provides a voltage proportional to the output power in the transmission path. 

To facilitate development, Vanceer also stocks the QPF4532EVB evaluation board, which provides example application circuits for rapid prototyping when incorporated into existing designs.
