RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for Skyworks SKY13453-385LF, a single-pole, double-throw (SPDT), high isolation switch built using SOI technology. The SKY13453-385LF operates over a frequency range of 10 MHz to 6 GHz and can handle up to 2 W of RF input power. Offering high linearity of 57 dBm IP3 and low insertion loss of 0.4 dB, this switch serves T/R functions in applications from white space through dual-band WLAN.
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for a 6 GHz GaN SPDT switch supporting communications, EW, Radar and general purpose applications handling power levels up to 40 W. The TGS2354-SM from TriQuint is packaged as a 4 x 4 mm QFN while the TGS2354 offers similar performance in DIE for hybrid applications. Switching speed for both is in the order of 50 nS.
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for TriQuint’s TGM3015-SM, a 3 x 3 mm QFN packaged GaN transistor offering 10 W P3dB. Linear power gain is up to 17.1 dB within the 0.03 to 3.0 GHz bandwidth of this device. PAE3dB of the TGM3015-SM is >62% which typifies TriQuint GaN efficiency.
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for a pair of 5 GHz power amplifiers designed for 802.11a/n/ac WLAN applications. TriQuint’s TQP5523 and TQP5525 are fully integrated modules with internal matching on both input and output ports. Both TriQuint devices run off 3.3 or 5 V Vcc and integrate a temperature compensated bias network.
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for two new Peregrine Semiconductor switches. Both the PE42542 and PE42543 are SP4T switches with operating bandwidth of 9 kHz to 18 GHz. Both switches are capable of handling 10 dBm of RF power at 9 kHz. DC power consumption for both the PE42542 and PE42543 is 120-microamps from a 2.3 to 5.5 V supply.
RFMW, Ltd. announces design and sales support for the TGA2618, a 16 to 18 GHz low noise amplifier that draws only 30 mA of current from a 3 V supply. 
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for TriQuint’s TGP2615 digital phase shifter. The TGP2615 covers Ku-band radar and communications applications in the 15 to 19 GHz frequency range. 6-bit control with 5.625 degree least significant bit (LSB) offer high resolution and 360 degree coverage. 
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for a fully integrated PIN limiter / Schottky diode module in a surface-mount package. The Skyworks SKY16602-632LF provides passive receiver protection in wireless or other RF systems ranging in frequency from 200 MHz to 4 GHz. Capable of handling 100 W of pulsed power, the SKY16602-632LF has a very low threshold of approximately 5 dBm. 
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for Peregrine Semiconductor’s PE42424, a SPDT switch operating from 100 MHz to 6 GHz. The PE42424 uses Peregrine’s HaRP technology to create a 50 ohm, reflective switch for high power, 802.11a/b/g/n/ac applications. Handling up to 8 W of transmit power, the PE42424 supports switching applications for outdoor Wi-Fi access points or WiFi enabled small cells.
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for four new high-linearity, low noise gain blocks from TriQuint. Offered as DIE, they target hybrid assembly designs requiring the highest level of performance unencumbered by package parasitics. All devices cover applications from 0.05 to 4 GHz such as commercial and military radar receivers, EW, and communication LNA designs.
