    • Ten linear paths offer band combination and air interface flexibility
    • Excellent GSM TX harmonic attenuation
    • Integrated antenna ESD protection
    • >1kV HBM ESD on all paths
    • RFFE interface with standard control voltage
    • Broadband performance suitable for all common cellular modulation schemes
    • Very low current consumption
    • Compact 2.5mm x 2.5mm x 1.0mm(typ) laminate module
    • Very high linearity and excellent harmonic performance - ideally suited for LTE applications
    • High power handling on TRX ports for SG-LTE applications

    Qorvo's RF1496A Antenna Switch Module offers very low insertion loss along with excellent linearity performance. The RF1496A is ideal for multi-mode GSM, EDGE, UMTS, and LTE handset applications. This module integrates low pass filtering on the GSM transmit paths thus avoiding the need for external harmonic attenuation. The RF1496A is compatible with standard RFFE control bus logic and is packaged in a compact 2.5mm x 2.5mm, 20-pin, laminate module package which allows for a small solution size with no need for external DC blocking capacitors when no external DC is applied to the device ports.
