&lt;p&gt;If it is to add a front end module (FEM) to the nRF7002 you are thinking of, I&amp;#39;m afraid this isn&amp;#39;t something I can advise you to move further on with. There&amp;#39;s no support for this on the nRF7002.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As stated in the &lt;a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/ps_nrf7002/keyfeatures_html5.html?cp=3_0_0"&gt;nRF7002 PS&lt;/a&gt;, the maximum output power is already quite high (21 dBm) so you&amp;#39;ll very likely run into certification problems by adding a FEM.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In addition to this, there are no hardware signals on the nRF7002 that are able to operate a FEM. There are signals indicating if the radio is operating or not but they don&amp;#39;t say anything about if it&amp;#39;s in Tx or Rx direction. These signals would neither have the correct timing to operate a FEM.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;br /&gt;Mathias&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
