DATA SHEET SKY66118-11: 2.4 GHz +20 dBm Front-End Module for Bluetooth IoT Applications Applications Wearables Personal trackers Smart appliances Smart thermostats Smart lighting BT connectivity modules Internet of Things (IoT) devices Figure 1. SKY66118-11 Block Diagram Features Integrated PA with up to +20 dBm output power Description Integrated bypass path, matching and harmonic filtering The SKY66118-11 is a high-performance, fully integrated RF front-end module (FEM) designed for Bluetooth, Zigbee , and Output power control: 1dB Thread applications. Wide supply range: 1.7 V to 3.3 V The SKY66118-11 is designed for ease of use and maximum Fast switch on/off time: 800 ns flexibility. The device integrates a +20 dBm power amplifier, RF Low sleep current: < 1 A switches, output matching, and harmonic filtering. Using simple 2-pin GPIO control, the FEM supports three modes of operation Wide temperature range: -40C to 105C (transmit mode, bypass mode, and an ALL OFF sleep mode). The Small MCM (18-pin, 2.6 mm x 2.4 mm x 0.75 mm) package, output power can also be externally adjusted through the VCTRL (MSL3, 260 C per JEDEC-J-STD-020) pin. TM A low transmit current consumption and operation over a wide Skyworks Green products are compliant with supply range enable the FEM to be used with a direct battery all applicable legislation and are halogen-free. connection, supporting a wide range of battery discharge For additional information, refer to Skyworks TM voltages. Denition of Green , document number SQ040074. A functional block diagram is shown in Figure 1. The SKY66118-11 is provided in a small, 18-pin, 2.6 mm x 2.4 mm Multi-Chip Module (MCM) package. The pin configuration and package are shown in Figure 2. Signal pin assignments and functional pin descriptions are provided in Table 1. Figure 2.

There is no damage to device with only one parameter set at the limit and all other parameters set at or below their nominal value. Exceeding any of the limits listed here may result in permanent damage to the device. 2 CW test signal. ESD HANDLING: Although this device is designed to be as robust as possible, electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage this device. This device must be protected at all times from ESD when handling or transporting. Static charges may easily produce potentials of several kilovolts on the human body or equipment, which can discharge without detection. Industry-standard ESD handling precautions should be used at all times. Skyworks Solutions, Inc.
