Product Specification PE42542 UltraCMOS SP4T RF Switch 9 kHz18 GHz Product Description Features The PE42542 is a HaRP technology-enhanced absorptive SP4T RF switch designed for use in Test/ HaRP technology enhanced ATE, microwave and other wireless applications. This Fast settling time broadband general purpose switch maintains excellent RF performance and linearity from 9 kHz through No gate and phase lag 18 GHz. The PE42542 exhibits low insertion loss, No drift in insertion loss and phase high isolation performance and has fast settling time. Low insertion loss No blocking capacitors are required if DC voltage is 1.10 dB 3 GHz not present on the RF ports. 2.10 dB 13.5 GHz The PE42542 is manufactured on Peregrines 2.50 dB 16 GHz UltraCMOS process, a patented variation of silicon-on- 3.10 dB 18 GHz insulator (SOI) technology on a sapphire substrate. High isolation Peregrines HaRP technology enhancements deliver high 55 dB 3 GHz linearity and excellent harmonics performance. It is an 33 dB 13.5 GHz innovative feature of the UltraCMOS process, offering the 29 dB 16 GHz performance of GaAs with the economy and integration 26 dB 18 GHz of conventional CMOS.
