SE2595L

Dual Band 802.11n Wireless LAN Front End


The SE2595L is a complete 802.11n WLAN RF frontend module providing all the functionality of the power amplifiers, LNA, power detector, T/R switch, diplexers and associated matching. The SE2595L provides a complete 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz WLAN Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MIMO) RF solution from the output of the transceiver to the antennas in a compact form factor.

The receive path is designed to maximize performance by providing both a low noise amplifier as well as a bypass state, for use when high power signals are being received.

Designed for ease of use, all RF ports are matched to 50 Ω to simplify PCB layout and the interface to the transceiver RFIC. The SE2595L also includes a transmitter power detector for each band with 20 dB of dynamic range. The power ramp rise/fall time is less than 0.5 µs.

The device also provides band pass filters for both the a and b/g bands prior to the input of each 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz power amplifiers, respectively.
