IDT公司的F2923在开关切换时能够在所有端口提供恒定阻抗,同时不影响隔离度、线性度或插入损耗

2015年11月30日

美国加利福尼亚州圣何塞,20151124 - IDT公司(IDT®)(NASDAQ:IDTI)今天宣布推出业界首款采用正在申请专利的KZ恒阻抗技术的单极双掷(SPDT)RF开关产品, IDT F2923是一款低插入损耗单极双掷吸收式(absorptive)RF开关,设计用于包括基站(2G,3G,4G,5G)、无线回程、CATV和便携式手持设备等多种RF应用。

F2923采用的KZ技术可以在射频端口间切换时控制所有端口的阻抗,保持了回波损耗。对于没有采用KZ技术的常规开关,由于在开关时不能很好地控制开关阻抗,因而在切换RF路径时会产生较大的电压驻波比(VSWR)瞬态,该VSWR瞬态会降低系统性能以及可靠性。在各种不同的动态或“热交换”方案下,Kz技术的优势包括:

  • 最小化TDD系统中切换的Tx/Rx频率合成器阻抗牵引和恢复时间
  • 在功率放大器、驱动器和低噪声放大器等两个RF器件之间切换时,可避免产生有害和错误的瞬态
  • 在开关如3dB 耦合器(coupler)或者 4通道功分器等分布式网络的一个路径时,能够使未切换路径瞬态幅度和相位误差最小化

IDT公司射频事业部总经理Chris Stephens 介绍说:“对于最新的SPDT开关产品,我们要强调能够大幅改善开关在线切换性能的新KZ技术。F2923的推出再次证明IDT公司在系统设计专家所期望的核心RF技术创新方面的领导地位。”

除了KZ技术,该器件还可提供下述性能:

  • 在2GHz下,插入损耗仅为0.48dB
  • IIP3大于66dBm @ 2GHz
  • 在2GHz下,业界领先的74 dB隔离度

IDT公司创新的Kz技术覆盖从300kHz至8000MHz的宽频率范围,在从一个RF端口切换到另一个时能够确保器件具有近乎恒定的阻抗(VSWR <1.4:1,其他标准开关相比之下为9:1),同时不影响隔离度、线性度或插入损耗。F2923采用3.3V单电源正电压供电,支持标准的1.8V和3.3V控制逻辑电平。

供货信息

F2923开关目前可提供样片,以4×4mm 20-TQFN封装供货。
