NJG1617K11-TE1#

RF switches are devices used to control the path of radio frequency signals. They come in various formats and utilize different technologies, including PIN diodes, solid-state switches and even MEMS technology. The NJG1617K11-TE1# RF switch is an example of a solid-state switch and is used in various applications such as single-pole switchable antenna systems, transmit/receive systems, and frequency hopping systems. At the heart of this switch is the latest semiconductor silicon substrate technology.

The NJG1617K11-TE1# is a single Pole 16 Throw (SP16T) switch designed for operating frequencies up to 6 GHz. This switch provides great performance for its size with a rugged dielectric package, low insertion loss, and excellent isolation. It is a non-reflective switch with an excellent response time of only nanoseconds and very nice output return losses.

This switch is designed to operate in two-stage modes: a high-power mode for switching in transmit applications, and a low-power mode for switching in receive applications. The switch is quite agnostic and can be used with a variety of power sources such as ±3 V supplies, polarized or unpolarized DC supplies, and AC-coupled sources. As this switch has both positive and negative control leads, it can be easily integrated into different systems.

The working principle of the NJG1617K11-TE1# RF switcher is based on the control leads of the device. When positive voltage is applied to the control lead, the switch is energized and the signal is transferred to the output terminal. When the negative voltage is applied to the control lead, the switch is de-energized and the signal is blocked from the output terminal. This switching is done very quickly and efficiently with nanosecond switching speeds.

The NJG1617K11-TE1# is a great choice for applications that require high frequency switching of radio signals. It is compact and rugged, with great insertion loss and isolation performance, making it an ideal choice for applications such as antenna systems, frequency hopping systems, and transmit/receive systems. The fast switching speeds and multiple power options make this switch an easy choice for any radio-frequency-related system.
