• Wireless Infrastructure

• Small cell BTS

• Pre-5G / 5G Massive MIMO systems

• TDD-based architectures

Product Overview

The QPB9329 is a highly integrated front-end module

targeted for TDD base stations. The switch LNA module

integrates a two-stage LNA and a high power switch in a

dual channel configuration. The second stage LNA has a

bypass mode. Power down and bypass capability for the

LNAs can be controlled with control pins on the module.

The QPB9329 can be utilized across the 3.8

– 6.0 GHz

range to provide 1.8

 dB noise figure for operation in the

receive mode and 1.1

 dB insertion loss in the transmit mode

at 4.5 GHz

. The LNAs utilize Qorvo’s high performance E-

pHEMT process while the SOI technology based switch

supports input RF power signals of up to 8W average power

assuming 8

 dB PAR. The product only needs a +5V supply

to operate the high-power switch and the LNAs.

The QPB9329 is packaged in a RoHS-compliant, compact

7 mm x 7 mm surface-mount leadless package. The switch
