Product Description
The PE42422 is a HaRP™ technology-enhanced
SPDT RF switch designed to cover a broad range of
applications from 100-6000 MHz. This reflective switch
integrates on-board CMOS control logic with a low
voltage CMOS-compatible control interface and
requires no external components.
Peregrine’s HaRP™ technology enhancements deliver
high linearity and exceptional harmonics performance.
It is an innovative feature of the UltraCMOS
®
process,
providing performance superior to GaAs with the
economy and integration of conventional CMOS.

Latch-Up Avoidance
Unlike conventional CMOS devices, UltraCMOS
®
devices are immune to latch-up.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
When handling this UltraCMOS
®
device, observe
the same precautions that you would use with
other ESD-sensitive devices. Although this device
contains circuitry to protect it from damage due to
ESD, precautions should be taken to avoid
exceeding the specified rating.
Moisture Sensitivity Level
The Moisture Sensitivity Level rating for the
PE42422 in the 12-lead 2x2x0.55 mm QFN
package is MSL1.
Exceeding absolute maximum ratings may cause
permanent damage. Operation should be restricted
to the limits in the Operating Ranges table.
