Teledyne e2v HiRel Releases Radiation Tolerant 60 GHz Reflective SPDT RF Switch for Space Applications - RF CafeRancho Cordova, CA - October 7, 2019 – Teledyne e2v HiRel announces the availability of a rad-tolerant 60 GHz, Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) reflective RF switch, model TDSW0602T (see PDF spec sheet), that is ideal for use in high reliability, demanding space and defense applications.

This new RF switch, developed with Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) technology, will be available as flip chip die and is screened per MIL-PRF-38534 Class K for space applications. Until now, rad tolerant 60 GHz switch technology has only been available for less rigorous commercial application requirements.

Features

  • Wideband support up to 60 GHz
  • Low insertion loss
    • 1.3 dB @ 26.5 GHz
    • 1.7 dB @ 45 GHz
    • 1.9 dB @ 50 GHz
    • 2.7 dB @ 60 GHz
  • Fast switching time of 8 ns
  • High port to port isolation
    • 41 dB @ 26.5 GHz
    • 38 dB @ 45 GHz
    • 37 dB @ 50 GHz
    • 36 dB @ 60 GHz
  • –55°C to +125°C operating temperature range
  • High linearity: IIP3 of 48 dBm

This product leverages monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) design techniques that deliver unprecedented performance in the K and Ka microwave and millimeter-wave bands for customers. The Teledyne e2v HiRel TDSW0602T RF switch delivers benchmark low insertion loss, high isolation, fast switching times, and high linearity across a wide frequency band from 20 kHz to 60 GHz. The element evaluation is performed per wafer, per MIL-PRF-38534 Class K.

"We provide a very wide range of semiconductor screening for ruggedized environmental requirements," said Mont Taylor, Vice President and Business Development Manager at Teledyne e2v HiRel. "Likewise, we are offering customers a rapidly expanding portfolio of RF products for Ka frequencies and beyond, including Amps, LNAs, PAs, DVGAs, DSAs, Limiters, Mixers, Prescalers, PLLs, Switches and more. The objective is to enable customers to save both time and money using Teledyne e2v HiRel as a 'one-stop shop' for procurement, processing, and qualification."

The TDSW0602T is manufactured on an UltraCMOS® process, an advanced form of SOI technology that delivers the performance of GaAs with the economy and integration of conventional CMOS (UltraCMOS® is a registered trademark of Peregrine Semiconductor Corporation). The SOI process has space-flight heritage and is TID radiation tolerant to 20 krad and immune to SEL (Single Event Latchup), making it an excellent choice for satellites and other high-altitude, high reliability applications.
