SP8T RF switch

15 August 2018 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

Mini-Circuits announced the release of the SPI-SP8T-6G, a low-cost, high-speed solid state RF SP8T (single pole, eight throw) absorptive switch, with control and power via a Hirose DF11 connector. The model contains an electronic, high-speed (6 μs typical switching time), high linearity (IP3 of 50 dBm typical) SP8T switch.

The RF switch is operated using a 3-wire SPI interface compatible with TTL and LVTTL voltages, and allows connecting up to 50 units in series to the same control line in a daisy chain configuration. This makes the device ideal for R&D, automated test equipment and controlling RF signal paths.

The SPI-SP8T-6G operates over a wide frequency band from 1 to 6000 MHz with high isolation of 80 dB typical, making it suitable for a wide variety of RF applications. It is constructed in a compact, rugged metal case (measuring 9,35 x 8,31 x 1,02 cm) with 9 SMP(M) connectors (COM, and J1 to J8), and two Hirose DF11 connectors providing SPI control and power, one for input and one for output when connecting multiple units in series.
