Qorvo RF Amplifiers, Switches and Attenuators: A Part Number Guide for Buyers

A single vendor, a very wide RF portfolio

Qorvo (the merged TriQuint + RFMD business) covers most of the RF signal chain: low-noise amplifiers, gain blocks, driver and power amplifiers, switches, digital step attenuators, mixers and integrated front-end modules. For buyers, the challenge is not finding a Qorvo part — it is picking the right one fast.

The main families you will see

• RF / RFFC series — general-purpose and configurable RF building blocks (amplifiers, mixers, synthesizers).
• RFPA series — RF power amplifiers for transmit chains.
• RFGA / SGA series — broadband gain blocks and general-purpose amplifiers.
• AG / AH series — InGaP HBT gain blocks with good linearity and low noise.
• TQP / QPC series — switches, attenuators and control components.

Reading a Qorvo part number

Take RFPA0133TR7: the family prefix (RFPA) tells you it is an RF power amplifier; the base number identifies the specific device; TR7 is the packaging / tape-and-reel and lot suffix. Similarly, RF1604TR7, RF2878TR7 and RFGA2044TR7 are all tape-and-reel parts — the TR suffix tells you the pack form.

Choosing between series

• Receive path, weak signals? Prioritise low noise figure — gain blocks and LNAs (AG/AH, SGA families).
• Transmit path, high output? Look at RFPA-series power amplifiers and their gain/efficiency curves.
• Switching and level control? TQP/QPC switches and digital step attenuators give the cleanest control.
• Integrated front end? Modules combine PA, LNA and switch to save board area.

Sourcing Qorvo parts

Because Qorvo spans consumer to defence-grade parts, what is held in authorised distribution varies. Many popular amplifiers and switches are available on the Shenzhen spot market, but — as always — verify date codes and, for high-value parts, request X-ray or lab testing.
