Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry’s leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components, is now stocking the QPF7219 integrated front end module (iFEM) from Qorvo®. Providing reliable, whole-home coverage when designed into Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) systems, the QPF7219 iFEM combines Qorvo’s advanced bulk acoustic wave (BAW) filter technology with its unique edgeBoost™ capability to almost double Wi-Fi range and triple capacity to handle more devices.
The Qorvo QPF7219 Wi-Fi 6 iFEM, available from Mouser Electronics, integrates a 2.4 GHz power amplifier (PA) optimized for a 5 V supply voltage, which saves power while maintaining high linear output power. The BAW filter’s edgeBoost capability maximizes output power at channels close to the band edge, achieve excellent throughput across all Wi-Fi channels 1-11 without needing to reduce transmit power to meet FCC regulatory limits.
