Microchip’s New Embedded Wi-FiDevelopment Board

[Normnet]

Am I reading this right?
Connect this 16 pin Microchip Power Amplifier for New IEEE 802.11ac Wi-Fi to a WiFi transceiver for longer range?

Nope, i dont think you are. This is a PA (power amp). It is only for the transmitter side. The transceiver is both a transmitter and receiver. A duplexer, switch, combiner ,isolator, or other device ensures both the transmit and receive path works. So if you were to connect this unidirectional device to the wifi transceiver, one of the two functions would stop working. This device would be used inside the transeiver, as a building block. But not outside as you are suggesting.
