Ultra-linear SPDT RF switch offers 5MHz to 6000MHz performance

The Peregrine Semiconductor PE42422 UltraCMOS SPDT RF switch is now available from RFMW. The enhanced frequency range of the PE42422 pushes down to 5MHz providing broadband performance from 5 - 6000MHz. Typical insertion loss of 0.25dB at 1000MHz with 44dB isolation is maintained. The device integrates on-board CMOS control logic requiring no external components and supports a wide supply voltage range of 2.3V to 5.5V. IIP2 of 115dBm highlights the PE42422’s performance. Housed in a 2mm x 2mm QFN package, ESD tolerance is 4kV HBM on the RF pins.
