Peregrine Semiconductor has launched new high-frequency CMOS RF switches in the form of the SPDT PE42520 and PE42521 devices.
The high-linearity devices support operation at 13 GHz, combined with high power handling of +36 dBm.
The switches are ideal for numerous high-frequency applications that require high power handling, such as signal-path and filter bank switching in the test and measurement, wireless backhaul and military markets, among others.
The PE42520/21 feature HaRP technology, resulting in IIP3 of 66 dBm and IIP2 of 115 dBm. The PE42520 supports frequencies down to 9 kHz, while the PE42521 is a fast-switching variant that operates down to 100 MHz. Both devices have low gate lag, a key feature for test and measurement applications. The insertion loss of both devices is 0,7 dB at 7,5 GHz. Both devices have isolation of greater than 41 dB at 7,5 GHz.
