Description

The AWMF-0200 is a highly integrated silicon quad-core dual pol

IC intended for 5G phased array applications. The IC has eight

antenna ports that can be connected to four dual-pol antenna

elements to support both horizontal and vertical polarizations in

a phased array. Two common ports, one for each polarization,

enable simultaneous processing of both polarizations. The

device includes all requisite beam steering controls for phase

and gain control and operates in half duplex fashion to enable a

single antenna to support both Tx and Rx operation. The IC is

packaged in a WLCSP (wafer level chip scale package) for easy

flip chip installation in planar phased array antennas.

The Gen-3 IC family provides extensive functionality that

simplifies the design of active antenna arrays. The scalable

architecture underpinning the IC family supports everything from

mmW 5G macro cells to small cells to customer premises

equipment (CPE).
