Skyworks Solutions Inc. SKY85726-11 5GHz WLAN Front-End Module

Skyworks Solutions Inc. SKY85726-11 5GHz WLAN Front-End Module (FEM) is a highly integrated device optimized for mobile and portable Wi-Fi® 6 (IEEE 802.11ax) applications. The SKY85726-11 combines a Single-Pole, Double-Throw (SPDT) Transmit/Receive (T/R) switch, a Low-Noise Amplifier (LNA) with bypass, and a Power Amplifier (PA) into a single compact device. 

The built-in LNA and PA of the SKY85726-11 offer disable functions, which ensure low leakage current in off mode. An integrated logarithmic power detector provides closed-loop power control within the system.

The Skyworks Solutions Inc. SKY85726-11 FEM device is offered in a 16-pin Quad Flat No-Lead (QFN) lead and halogen-free Skyworks Green package.
