Qorvo has unveiled three DOCSIS 3.1-ready power doubler multi-chip modules (MCMs). Qorvo’s latest power doubler MCM amplifiers provide cable broadband service providers an easy upgrade path to DOCSIS 3.1 with maximum design flexibility and functionality while conserving power and reducing board space.

In April 2016, Comcast released an interesting report, compiled from almost 1,300 US consumers, providing valuable insight into why customers are interested in smart home services, what features they really want and how they plan to use smart home technologies. The findings are detailed in "The Safe & Smart Home: Security in the Smart Home Era", which can be downloaded below.

Incorporating the GP712 radio communication controller chip from GreenPeak Technologies (now the Low Power Wireless business unit of Qorvo), a ZigBee 3.0 SDK for Smart Home gateways has been introduced by Qorvo. The SDK allows application developers to programme a GP712-equipped gateway to communicate seamlessly with various sensors, controllers and systems within today’s smart homes.

Availability and full design support capabilities for a new 2.8–3.2GHz 50W GaN Amplifier from Qorvo are announced by Richardson RFPD. The QPA1000 is a high-power, S-band amplifier fabricated on Qorvo’s QGaN25 0.25um GaN on SiC production process. The device provides greater than +47 dBm of saturated output power and greater than 24dB of large-signal gain, while achieving more than 58% power added efficiency.

Qorvo has announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire privately-held GreenPeak Technologies. The acquisition of Netherlands-based GreenPeak will allow Qorvo to expand its customer offering to include highly integrated RF solutions and SoCs for the connected home and the rapidly growing IoT.

Availability and full design support capabilities are now being offered by Richardson RFPD for two new X-band GaN power amplifiers from Qorvo. The TGA2622-SM and TGA2624-SM operate from 9GHz to 10GHz and are offered in 7 mm x 7 mm air-cavity, laminate-based QFN packages.

Qorvo has added ten DOCSIS 3.1-ready reverse path amplifiers to its portfolio, enabling cable broadband service providers with the fastest data rate capabilities required for high-bandwidth content uploading. Qorvo's products for HFC and FTTH applications include the RFCA8830 and RFCA1008 reverse path power amplifiers capable of operating up to 300MHz – well beyond the current return path requirement of 204MHz.

Thousands of electrical components make up today's most sophisticated systems – and without innovative cooling techniques, those systems get hot. Lockheed Martin is working with the DARPA Microsystems Technology Office (MTO) on its ICECool-Applications research program that could ultimately lead to a lighter, faster and cheaper way to cool high-powered microchips – by cooling the chips with microscopic drops of water.

Full design support capabilities is on offer from Richardson RFPD for two new high-power receive protection circuit limiters from Qorvo. Using Qorvo’s passive GaAs VPIN technology, the new devices do not require bias and are offered in small plastic overmould packages.

Qorvo has announced a series of innovations intended to accelerate the deployment of high-speed CAble TV (CATV) DOCSIS 3.1 networks while providing cable designers greater flexibility in product design. Qorvo's latest Multi-Chip Module(MCM) packaging, thermal sensing pins and advanced GaN on SiC integration capabilities enable CATV product designers to lower costs, increase bandwidth and reduce board space.
