Executive Summary
In the las year, the increasing development of 5G reshaped the RF power industry landscape pushing the radiofrequency (RF)GaN market. Compared to existing silicon LDMOS and GaAs solutions, GaN devices are able to deliver the power/efficiencylevel required for next generation high frequency telecom networks. The LNA market is expected to grow at a 16% CAGR withthe implementation of the diversity module, along with integration in power amplifier modules for handsets.
Qorvo was the first player to unveil a front-end module for ultra-high band coverage based on GaN on SiC 0.15µm technology.
System Plus Consulting unveils Qorvo’s design presenting the reverse costing of the QPF4006 39GHz GaN MMIC Front EndModule. The device is targeted for 5G base stations and terminals and combines, on the same die, a high linearity LNA, a lowinsertion-loss TR switch and a high gain PA.
The QPF4006 is assembled in an air-cavity laminate package with embedded copper heat slug which proves Qorvo’s internaltest and packaging capability.,
This report includes a detailed analysis of the packaging and the GaN on SiC transistor with optical and SEM pictures. Moreoverit proposed cost analysis for the complete device.
