RF Switches Forum Discussions
Hello all,
I´m a designer but not related to RF solutions and I´m working with CC1310 from Texas. This IC is ok for short-range transmissions.
So I´m considering using a power amplifier like CMX90A004 from CML.
For it, I´ll need to use an RF switch to select the RF path from the power amplifier to the antenna when transmitting and another path from the antenna to CC1310 RF pins (the balloon).
Could someone help me find the correct IC from Infineon and some help in hardware?
Thank you
Regards

Customer evaluating the BS12WN6 but wants to review the Gerber files for the Eval board to aide in custom board layout.
For this diversity switch, it says on p. 2 of the datasheet that "No blocking capacitors required if no DC applied on RF lines." However, as a footnote on p. 3, it says, "1) There is also a DC connection between switched paths. The DC voltage at RF ports V_{RFDC} has to be 0 V."
Could someone please clarify this? I am interested in using it as an SPST with RF2 left unterminated. I would also like to have RF1 and GND connected.
Thank you,
Alden

I need to build a switcher up to 6GHz. Using the PIN diodes. I understand what to do in terms of schematic, but when I try to
layout the components the PCB itself is never capable of reaching the frequency range. The problem is there is always a node
very populated of converging footprints and the capacitance increases too much. I have tool to simulate the PCB, and no solution is coming. A 'normal' layout with all of the PIN Diodes concentrated in a big spot reaches no more the 1 GHz. So I need a suggestion for a working layout.
A switcher out of the shelf does not work, I need to switch more power.
Thank You

Show LessWhat is the ideal condition of RF Switch. Here is my parts number - BGS12SN6 When RF1 is connected and When RF2 connected?
Hi Infineon,
Could you help to provide the data of IBIS model for BGS12WN6?
Thanks.

Hi IFX,
Could you help to provide the data of IBIS model for BGS12WN6?
Thanks.

Hello,
I am working on a project to protect our receiver part from unwanted input power and have some amplification on the received signal.
To clarify my question, I want to convert -60dbm to 20dbm to -40 to 0dbm.
I design a system with two SP4T RF switches, but it uses many components and needs a prominent space on a PCB.
I would be grateful if you could kindly let me know your suggestion to convert (-60 up to 20) dBm to (-40 up to 0) dBm.
Best regards,
John
