ADVANCED ADVANCE D RFFM6903 ISM Front End Module Product Overview The Qorvo RFFM6903 is a single-chip front end module (FEM) for applications in the 900MHz and 868MHz ISM Bands. The RFFFM6903 addresses the need for aggressive size reduction for typical portable equipment RF front end design and greatly reduces the number of components outside of the core chipset thus minimizing the footprint and assembly cost of the overall solution. The RFFM6903 contains an integrated 1 Watt PA, SP3T antenna switch, integrated Tx harmonic filter, Tx thru path, LNA with bypass mode, and matching components. 28 Pad 6x6 mm Laminate Package Functional Block Diagram Key Features 890-960MHz Integrated 50 Input/Output Match Tx Output Power: 30dBm Separate TX/RX 50 transceiver interface Integrated PA, filtering LNA with Bypass Mode Transmit Thru path Applications Wireless Automatic Metering Portable Battery Powered Equipment Smart Energy Ordering Information Part Number Description RFFM6903SB Sample bag with 5 pieces RFFM6903SQ Sample bag with 25 pieces RFFM6903SR 7 reel with 100 pieces Top View RFFM6903TR13 13 reel with 2,500 pieces RFFM6903PCK-410 Evaluation board w/ 5 pc bag 1 of 10 www.qorvo.com Data Sheet Rev M September 2020 Subject to change without notice RFFM6903 ISM Front End Module Absolute Maximum Ratings Parameter Conditions Rating Voltage +5.25 V Control Voltage VDD 0.2 V DC Storage Temperature -40 to 150C RF Input Power at TX Transmit Mode +15 dBm RF Input Power at TX Transmit Bypass Mode +20 dBm RF Input Power at ANT +33 dBm RF Input Power at SAW2 +5 dBm T/R Port Load VSWR Transmit Mode 10:1 Exceeding any one or a combination of the Absolute Maximum Rating conditions may cause permanent damage to the device.
