Product Overview

The QPB9348 is a highly integrated front-end module

targeted for TDD base stations. The LNA switch module

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

dual channel configuration. Power down capability for the

LNAs can be controlled with shut-down pins on the module.

The QPB9348 can be operated across the 1.7

– 4.2 GHz

range. It provides 1.2 dB noise figure at 3.5GHz for

operation in the receive mode and 0.5 dB insertion loss in

the transmit

mode. The LNAs utilize Qorvo’s high

performance E-pHEMT process while the SOI based switch

supports input RF power signals of up to 10W average

power assuming 9 dB PAR.

The QPB9348 is packaged in a RoHS-compliant, compact

6 x 6 mm surface-mount leadless package. The switch LNA

module is targeted for wireless infrastructure applications

configured for TDD-based MIMO architectures.
