The PE42427A is a reflective SPDT (Single Pole, Dual Throw) low insertion loss RF switch IC manufactured by pSemi. The switch is designed to operate at frequencies in the range of DC to 50 GHz. It provides an excellent port-to-port isolation of 65 dB,typ. The low insertion loss (1.5 dB Typ @ 18 GHz) makes it suitable for applications such as channel selection, Wi-Fi, Cellular, VSAT, DBS, Datacom, VSAT, etc. It is offered in a 4-lead leadless ceramic chip carrier package with an absolute maximum power rating of 1 watt. With its fast switching time of 250 ns maximum, it is well suited for applications in which frequency stability and fast switching are needed. It can be used with both AC and DC voltage signals. Additionally, it features low power consumption and low voltage operation (1.6 V typical).
