Peregrine Unveils 40 GHz RF SOI Switch

News
The UltraCMOS PE42524 is designed to set a new standard for RF SOI at high frequencies

Peregrine Semiconductor Corp., founder of RF SOI (silicon on insulator) and pioneer of advanced RF solutions has introduced the UltraCMOS PE42524, which the company claims is the industry's first RF SOI switch to operate up to 40 GHz.

This switch significantly extends Peregrine's high-frequency portfolio into frequencies previously dominated by gallium arsenide (GaAs) technology. As an alternative to GaAs-based solutions, the PE42524 features high reliability and performance advantages in linearity, isolation, settling time and ESD protection. These attributes make the switch ideal for test-and-measurement, microwave-backhaul, radar and military communications devices.

As we further extend our high-frequency portfolio into microwave frequencies, Peregrine proves the capabilities and advantages of RF SOI technology," says Kinana Hussain, senior marketing manager. "Our UltraCMOS technology enables our high-frequency components, such as the PE42524, to reach performance levels previously considered unattainable in RF SOI. With a product roadmap that includes additional high-frequency components, Peregrine has, and will continue to, set new standards for RF SOI."

Peregrine's high-frequency switch portfolio, which includes 13 GHz, 18 GHz, 26.5 GHz and now 40 GHz products, is manufactured on Peregrine's UltraCMOS technology, a patented variation of SOI technology on a sapphire substrate.
