Product Specification
PE42420
UltraCMOS SPDT RF Switch
1006000 MHz
Product Description
Features
The PE42420 is a HaRP technology-enhanced
absorptive SPDT RF switch designed for use in 3G/4G
HaRP technology enhanced
wireless infrastructure and other high performance RF
No gate and phase lag
applications. It is ideal for transmit path switching, RF and
No drift in insertion loss and phase
IF signal routing, AGC loops, and filter bank switching
applications.
High linearity
IIP3 of 65 dBm
This general purpose switch is comprised of two symmetric
High isolation
RF ports and has exceptional port to port isolation up to
69 dB @ 1 GHz
6 GHz. An integrated CMOS decoder facilitates a two-pin
low voltage CMOS control interface. In addition, no
62 dB @ 3 GHz
external blocking capacitors are required if 0 VDC is
50 dB @ 6 GHz
present on the RF ports.
Supports +1.8V control logic
+105 C operating temperature
The PE42420 is manufactured on Peregrines UltraCMOS
process, a patented variation of silicon-on-insulator (SOI)
High ESD tolerance
technology on a sapphire substrate.
4 kV HBM on RFC
2 kV HBM on all other pins
Peregrines HaRP technology enhancements deliver high
linearity and excellent harmonics performance. It is an
innovative feature of the UltraCMOS process, offering
the performance of GaAs with the economy and integration
of conventional CMOS.
