AWMF-0224
24 - 30 GHz Dual Channel IF Transceiver
Contact Qorvo Beamforming Sales for more information.
关键性能
- 24.25 to 29.5 GHz operation
- n258, n257, and n261 3GPP bands
- Dual channel supporting dual polarization with a single IC
- On-chip LO synthesizer
- On-chip selectable LO for multiple use cases
- FC-CSP package and small footprint for low-cost arrays
- Offers significantly better LO phase noise than commercial off the shelf available parts
Qorvo's AWMF-0224 is the industry's first fully integrated dual channel IF up/down converter with integrated PLL/VCO LO synthesizer. The half-duplex IC integrates dual Tx single-sideband up-conversion, dual Rx image-reject down-conversion functionality, and an on-chip LO synthesizer that enables 2T2R applications within a single die. An on-chip frequency multiplier simplifies board-level integration for use with either an internal frequency synthesizer or an external PLL.
New features for this generation include on-chip selectable LO multiplication, high IF support, LO multiplexing to remove need for external switches for MIMO operation, and a high-power PA eliminating the need for an external driver IC.
Consider AWMF-0221 Dual Polarization Quad 4x2 Beamformer IC for a full RF solution.

AWMF-0224 Developer Kit
Qorvo's AWMF-0224-DK or AWMF-0224-DL developer kits include all hardware and software required to interface to the AWMF-0224. The kits enable full evaluation and RF testing of the converter IC with user-friendly interfaces. The test board has been carefully designed to demonstrate the performance of the device and to provide the necessary port to port isolation.
Calibration data is included to enable the removal of test board line losses. The SPI control is supported through a high-speed cable, interposer board and USB interface module. Driver software and GUI are supplied to provide control from a PC.
DC power is supplied to the test board through a separate cable assembly also included in the kit. An ultra-low phase noise 122.88 MHz crystal oscillator is provided on a separate board to allow full and accurate evaluation of the on-chip synthesizer. A full set of measured data is included to provide reference performance for each Developer Kit.
Evaluation of the AWMF-0224 with the Developer Kits will significantly shorten the time to become familiar with the operation and performance of the product, thereby reducing system development time and cost.
