Microsemi Corporation, a leading provider of semiconductor solutions differentiated by power, security, reliability and performance, today announced a new high power monolithic microwave surface mount (MMSM) series-shunt SP2T PIN diode reflective switch, the MPS2R10-606. The device is optimized for high frequency (HF),very high frequency (VHF) and ultrahigh frequency (UHF) high power transmit/receive (T/R) switching in applications such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) receive arrays and first responder, military, aviation and marine radio communications. The new device leverages Microsemi’s unique 50-year history supplying premier PIN diode products for challenging radio frequency (RF) power, small signal switching and receiver power limiting functions.
Microsemi’s new MPS2R10-606 switch provides frequency coverage from 100 megahertz (MHz) to 1 gigahertz (GHz) with 0.2 decibel (dB) insertion loss, 15 dB return loss and 55 dB of isolation at mid-band. A simple analog control voltage allows the device to achieve 500 nanosecond (nS) switching speeds while handling up to 100 watts (W) of continuous wave (CW) power. Available in a compact, nonmagnetic 2.03 mm x 1.27 mm format, the MPS2R10-606 switch meets RoHS requirements per EU directive 2002/95/EC, and is fully compatible with pick and place and surface-mount technology (SMT) solder reflow manufacturing techniques.
The Microsemi MPS2R10-606 is available in a highly integrated, compact 2.03 mm x 1.27 mm wafer-scale format, is RoHS compliant, and is supplied with gold plated terminations. For more information, visit http://www.microsemi.com/existing-parts/parts/136674.
