Mouser QPF4528 FEM for IoT
Mouser Electronics, Inc is now stocking the QPF4528
front end module (FEM) from Qorvo. Designed for
Internet of Things (IoT) systems based on Wi-Fi 6, the
5GHz FEM offers a compact form factor and integrated matching to minimize layout area in applications such as wireless routers,
set top boxes, and access points.
It integrates a 5GHz power amplifier, regulator, SPDT switch, low
noise amplifier with bypass mode, RF coupler and voltage power
detector into a single device. It boosts linear power transmission
without increasing power dissipation, enabling higher-performance
Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) enterprise access points in smaller form factor designs.
The QPF4528 FEM allows up
to 8×8 multiple-input multiple- Contact:

Microchip’s new dsPICs mean larger, more robust applications
Microchip’s new dsPIC33CH512MP508 dual-core DSC enables support for
applications with larger program memory
requirements.
This family expands the recently introduced dsPIC33CH with Flash memory
growing from 128kB to 512kB and triples
the program RAM from 24kB to 72kB. This
enables support for larger applications
with multiple software stacks or larger
program memory, such as automotive
and wireless charging applications. More
memory is needed to accommodate AUTOSAR software, MCAL drivers and CANFD peripherals in automotive applications.
The dsPIC33CK64MP105 singlecore DSC extends the recently introduced
dsPIC33CK family with a cost-optimized version for smaller memory and footprint applications, offering up to 64kB Flash memory
and 28- to 48-pin packages. Package sizes
are available as small as 4mm x 4mm. This
compact device offers the ideal combination
of features for automotive sensors, motor
control, high-density DC-DC applications or
stand-alone Qi transmitters.
All devices in the dsPIC33C family include
a fully featured set of functional safety hardware to ease ASIL-B and ASIL-C certifications
in safety-critical applications.
Functional safety features include multiple redundant clock sources, Fail Safe Clock
Monitor (FSCM), IO ports read-back, Flash
Error Correction Code (ECC), RAM Built-In
Self-Test (BIST),
write protection,
analog peripheral
redundancies and
more. A robust set
of CAN-FD peripherals, along with
support for 150°C operation, make these
devices ideally suited for use in extreme
operating conditions such as under-thehood automotive applications.
