Manufacturer profiles associated with RF Switch.
Manufacturer listings support early research and capability understanding. They are not certification, ranking, or transaction guarantees.
A practical evidence checklist for RFQ preparation and supplier evaluation.
CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
The frequency range for the RF switch on file is 0.1–6 GHz, covering common wireless bands. However, the actual range depends on the specific model and must be verified with the manufacturer.
In a transceiver, the RF switch routes the antenna to either the transmitter or receiver chain. When in transmit mode, the switch isolates the receiver, preventing the high-power signal from damaging sensitive components. The isolation parameter (30–60 dB) indicates the level of protection.
Key parameters include frequency range, insertion loss, isolation, return loss, switching time, power handling, control voltage, supply current, operating temperature, package type, ESD rating, and impedance. These values are reference ranges and must be confirmed for the specific application.
Materials on file include Gallium Arsenide (GaAs), Silicon Germanium (SiGe), and Silicon (Si). The choice of material affects performance characteristics such as insertion loss and power handling. Verify the material for the specific model.
