Skyworks has launched the SKY5A1007, a new switch in the portfolio of Sky5 product solutions, designed to support the ever-growing demand for cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) connectivity.
The SKY5A1007 is a state-of-the-art complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor, silicon-on-insulator double-pole, double-throw (DPDT) switch with high-linearity performance, low insertion loss and high isolation. The device enables high speed switching between antennas for high data throughput and minimizes the need for additional filtering.
Switching is controlled by one voltage input, CTRL1. Depending on the logic voltage level applied to this pin, the PORT1 and PORT2 pins connect to one of the two other RF port pins (PORT3 or PORT4) through a low insertion loss path, while maintaining a high isolation path to the alternate port. No external DC blocking capacitors are required on the RF path as long as no DC voltage is applied externally.
The SKY5A1007 DPDT switch is provided in a compact quad flat no-lead (QFN) 1.83 × 1.83 × 0.5 mm package.
The SKY5A1007 meets the necessary requirements for 5G automotive telematics including operation within cellular, 5GNR and 5.9 GHz C-V2X bands, while supporting the wide temperature range needed for this emerging technology.
