RF Switches

An RF Switch is an electronic component that enables the selection of the desired signal path between two or more different inputs or outputs. It also allows for the isolation of an input or output from the signal path. RF switches are commonly used in a variety of electronic circuits such as radio receivers, transmitters, amplifiers, radar systems, and GPS systems. The HMC641LC4TR-R5 is an RF switch that has been designed to meet a wide range of applications. This article will provide an overview of the HMC641LC4TR-R5 application field and working principle.

Application Field of HMC641LC4TR-R5

The HMC641LC4TR-R5 is a dual-channel, SPDT, SMT RF switch optimized for use in applications from DC-3 GHz. These include various wireless applications such as WLANs, WiMAXs, 3G/4G cellular phones and base stations, public-safety radios, GPS receivers, wireless audio systems, and satellite TV receivers. The switch has a low insertion loss and excellent linearity, making it suitable for amplifiers and filters. The HMC641LC4TR-R5 is also optimized for low-power applications such as battery-powered handheld radios, personal digital assistants, and Bluetooth headsets.

Working Principle of HMC641LC4TR-R5

The HMC641LC4TR-R5 consists of two switches in a single device, each of which operates from a single control signal. Each switch offers a single-pole double-throw (SPDT) configuration with a low insertion loss of 0.47dB at 2GHz, and a high isolation of up to 47 dB. The switches are designed with a novel SMT package that is suitable for high-frequency applications up to 3GHz. The switches also feature a low-input power capability (5 mW max at 1GHz) and low power consumption (0.56 mW max at 2GHz).

The HMC641LC4TR-R5 operates on a single 3.3V supply voltage, making it compatible with most microcontroller-based systems. The switch has a logic-level control input with one logic level (high or low) corresponding to each switch pole, and the switch is complete with an on-chip bandgap voltage reference. The on-chip voltage reference allows the switch to accurately detect the logic levels and ensures that the input is well defined. The switch also features a built-in hysteresis for noise immunity, and it is powered down when the control voltage is removed.

Conclusion

The HMC641LC4TR-R5 is a versatile, multi-use RF switch optimized for use in a number of applications from DC-3 GHz. The switch feature a low insertion loss and excellent linearity, making it suitable for amplifiers and filters. It also has a low-power requirement and a logic-level control input, and is powered down when the control voltage is removed. These features combine to make the HMC641LC4TR-R5 a versatile and reliable choice for a variety of applications.
