Device
Multipole GaN-on-Si SPDT Switch; 0.39 mm2 chip
Spectrum
Up to 30 GHz
Novelty
The design uses the inductive parasitic effects of hybrid HEMT devices to produce two transmission poles that flatten the passband and improve in-band insertion loss and return loss.
A 3rd transmission pole can be implemented with a two-element series-shunt switch topology.
Application
Single antenna TDD applications for data exchange between devices.
Performance
1 dB Bandwidth up to 30 GHz with 0.5 dB Insertion Loss for up to 31 dBm Power Levels.
