PE426482
SP8T RF Switch
Switching Frequency
The PE426482 has a maximum 25 kHz switching
frequency. Switching frequency describes the time
duration between switching events. Switching time is
the time duration between the point the control signal
reached 50% of the final value and the point the
output signal reaches within 10% or 90% of its target
value.
Spurious Performance
The PE426482 spur fundamental occurs around
5 MHz. Its typical performance is –162 dBm/Hz, with
30 kHz bandwidth.
Hot-Switching Capability
The maximum hot switching capability of the
PE426482 is 18 dBm above 100 MHz. Hot switching
occurs when RF power is applied while switching
between RF ports.
Thermal Data
Psi-JT (ΨJT), junction top-of-package, is a thermal
metric to estimate junction temperature of a device on
the customer application PCB (JEDEC JESD51-2).
ΨJT = (TJ – TT)/P
where
ΨJT = junction-to-top of package characterization
parameter, °C/W
TJ = die junction temperature, °C
TT = package temperature (top surface, in the
center), °C
P = power dissipated by device, Watts
Input IP2 RFC–RFX 100 MHz–8 GHz 105 dBm
Input IP3 RFC–RFX 100 MHz–8 GHz 60 dBm
RF TRISE/TFALL 10%/90% RF 100 130 ns
Settling time 50% CTRL to 0.05 dB final value 870 1400 ns
Switching time 50% CTRL to 90% or 10% of RF 227 290 ns
Notes:
1) Insertion loss and isolation perf orman ce can be improved by a good RF gr ound on the LS pin (p in 1).
2) Defined with S-par ameters, relative insert ion ph ase (RFX –RF1) = ∠S(x+1)1 – ∠S21, where incident Por t -1 is R FC, r espo nse Po rt- 2 = RF 1 , a nd
response Port-(x+1) = RFx.
