Skyworks Introduces SP3T Antenna Switch

Woburn, MA -- Skyworks Solutions, Inc. announced SKY13309-370 LF, a single pole three throw (SP3T) antenna switch for the 2.4-2.5 gigahertz (GHz) band. The low loss, high isolation, high linearity, small size, and low-cost features make this switch ideal for wireless local area network (WLAN), Bluetooth systems, and other applications including analog and digital mobile television in emerging markets, wireless headsets, and receiver chain of phones.

This pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor (pHEMT) gallium arsenide (GaAs) integrated circuit (IC) switch operates up to the 3 GHz frequency range. Switching between the antenna and transmit/receive (Tx/Rx) ports is accomplished with three control voltages.

The switch is packaged in a lead (Pb)-free and restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS)-compliant, 2 x 2 x 0.6 mm plastic package.
