Design a Custom BoardAbout This Component
Fully integrated RF front-end module for 2.4 GHz Zigbee and ISM band applications combining power amplifier with +22 dBm output, low-noise amplifier with 2.5 dB noise figure, and TX/RX switching circuitry. Includes on-chip matching networks and decoupling, single 1.2 V CMOS control logic, and ESD protection. Ideal for extended-range wireless sensor networks, home/industrial automation, and smart power systems.
Package: QFN-16-1EP (3×3mm, EP) · 16 pins
Why does this need a breakout?
This 3×3mm QFN-16 with 0.5mm pitch requires a breakout board to prototype effectively. The fine pitch makes hand soldering nearly impossible, and the hidden pads underneath prevent breadboard use entirely. A breakout board converts the package to through-hole or larger pads, enabling rapid iteration with wideband amplifiers, motor drivers, and power management ICs that typically use this footprint.
