Selectively shielded radio frequency module with linearized low noise amplifier

Abstract:

Front end systems and related devices, integrated circuits, modules, and methods are disclosed. One such packaged module includes a low noise amplifier in an interior of a radio frequency shielding structure and an antenna external to the radio frequency shielding structure. The low noise amplifier includes a first inductor, an amplification circuit, and a second inductor magnetically coupled to the first inductor to provide negative feedback to linearize the low noise amplifier. The radio frequency shielding structure can extend above a package substrate. The antenna can be on the package substrate. Other embodiments of front end systems are disclosed, along with related devices, integrated circuits, modules, methods, and components thereof.
