The RF5924 FEM is a single integrated module for high-
performance WLAN applications in the 2.4GHz to
2.5GHz ISM band. The FEM has integrated b/g power
amplifier, power detector, RX balun, and TX filtering. Also,
it is capable of switching between WLAN RX, WLAN TX
and BTH RX/TX operations. It has low insertion loss at
the 2.4GHz to 2.5GHz WLAN and BTH paths. The device
is provided in a 3.5mmx3.5mm, 16-pin package. This
module meets or exceeds the RF front-end needs of
802.11b/g WLAN RF systems.
