Circuitry, modules, devices, and methods for integrating front-end carrier aggregation architecture are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method can include providing a packaging substrate configured to receive a plurality of components. The method can also include providing a front-end architecture implemented on the packaging substrate, the front-end architecture including a switching assembly configured to provide switching for two or more frequency bands, the switching assembly including at least one coupler configured to couple a signal associated with the switching assembly, and a diplexer circuit including a first filter configured to pass a first frequency band, a second filter configured to pass a second frequency band, and a first electrostatic discharge network configured to dissipate electrostatic energy associated with the first and second frequency bands from the front-end architecture.
