SPDT Switches For WLAN Applications

Skyworks Solutions, Inc. has introduced two small (1 x 1 mm packaged) GaAs single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) switches for WLAN applications. The SKY13366-378LF (2.0-6.0 GHz) and the SKY13350-385LF (0.8-6.0 GHz) switches target low power WLAN consumer premise device equipment and offer exceptional RF performance including positive voltage control, very low insertion loss, high isolation and excellent linearity.

SKY13366-378LF 2.0-6.0 GHz GaAs SPDT Switch
The SKY13366-378LF is a pHEMT GaAs FET I/C switch. The switch may be used in transmit/receive applications by connecting the RF common port (INPUT, pin 5) to either the OUTPUT1 or OUTPUT2 port (pin 1 or 3, respectively) using a low loss path (i.e., a positive voltage applied to either VCTL1 or VCTL2 pins). The switch is "reflective short" on the isolated port.

The switch is manufactured in a compact, 1 x 1 mm, 6-pin exposed pad plastic Micro Leadframe Package Dual (MLPD) package.

• Positive voltage control (0 and 1.8 V to 0 and 5.0 V)
• Broadband frequency range: 2.0-6.0 GHz
• Very low insertion loss, 0.35 dB typical @ 2.45 GHz
• High isolation, 24 dB typical @ 2.45 GHz
• Excellent linearity performance, IP0.5dB = +30 dBm
• Ultra-miniature, QFN (6-pin, 1 x 1 mm) package (MSL1, 260 °C per JEDEC J-STD-020)

SKY13350-385LF 0.8-6.0 GHz GaAs SPDT Switch
The SKY13350-385LF is a GaAs pHEMT FET single-pole, doublethrow (SPDT) switch. The switch may be used in transmit/receive applications by connecting the RF common port (INPUT, pin 6) to either the OUTPUT1 or OUTPUT2 port (pin 2 or 4, respectively) using a low loss path (i.e., a positive voltage applied to either VCTL1 or VCTL2 pins). The switch is "reflective short" on the isolated port.

The switch is manufactured in a compact, 1 x 1 mm, 6-pin exposed pad plastic Micro Leadframe Package Dual (MLPD) package.
