QPF4010
24.25 –ꢀ27.5ꢀGHz Front End Module
Product Description
The QPF4010 is a high frequency, high performance MMIC
front-end module targeted for 5G - n258 at 26 GHz phased
array base stations and terminals. It is fabricated on
Qorvo’s 90 nm pHEMT (QPHT09) production process. The
device combines a low noise high linearity LNA, a low
insertion-loss high-isolation TR switch, and a high-
efficiency multi-stage PA.
The QPF4010 covers a frequency range from 24.25 GHz
to 27.5 GHz. The receive path (LNA + TR SW) is designed
to provide 13.5 dB of gain and a typical noise figure of 4.0
dB. The transmit path (PA+SW) provides 17 dB of small
signal gain and a saturated output power of 22.5 dBm. It
can operate at an average power of 14 dBm with 4%
typical EVM at 64 QAM, 100MHz modulated signal.
The QPF4010 is offered in a small 4x4 mm overmold QFN
surface mount package, matched to 50 Ω and has
integrated DC blocking capacitors on all RF ports allowing
for simple system integration. The frequency coverage
and operational flexibility allows it to support satellite
communication, point to point data links and 5G systems.
