Skyworks launches low-power Bluetooth low-energy front-end modules

Analog and mixed-signal semiconductor maker Skyworks Solutions Inc of Woburn, MA, USA has launched two low-power Bluetooth low-energy (BLE) front-end modules (FEMs) for connected home, wearable and industrial applications.

The SKY66110-11 and SKY66111-11 FEMs operate at 2.4-2.485GHz, with power consumption of only 10mA in transmit mode, and are suitable for products operating from coin cell batteries including sensors, beacons, smart watches, thermostats, smoke and carbon dioxide detectors, wireless cameras and audio headphones, hearing aids and medical pendants.

Packaged in a small-footprint 3mm x 3mm x 0.8mm, 16-pin multi-chip module, the FEMs more than double the range when compared to a standalone system-on-chip solution. The SKY66111-11 FEM in particular features adjustable output power.
