New product provides the Space RF engineering and design community with an off-the-shelf
high frequency RF switch for the most challenging high-reliability space applications
.
 Milpitas, CA – December 14th, 2021 –
Teledyne e2v HiRel announces the availability of a rad-tolerant 20 GHz,
Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) absorptive RF switch, model TDSW020A2T, that is
ideal for use in demanding high reliability, space and defense applications and
is now available with qualified material off-the-shelf. This new RF switch, developed
on 0.15 μm InGaAs pHEMT technology, will be available as die and is qualified
per MIL-PRF-38534 Class K-equivalent for space applications.
The
TDSW020A2T leverages monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) design techniques
that deliver superior performance in the Ku and K microwave and millimeter-wave
bands. The switch delivers low insertion loss, high isolation, fast switching times,
and high linearity across a wide frequency band from dc to 20 GHz and attains an
input power 1 dB compression of 28 dBm (typical). Class K equivalent element
evaluation is performed per wafer.
"We continue to expand our portfolio of high reliability RF products for Ku and
K bands and beyond," said Mont Taylor, Vice President and Business Development Manager
at Teledyne e2v HiRel. "This new product is the first 20 GHz switch qualified to
100 krad, and joins our growing product lines of amplifiers, low noise amplifiers,
power amplifiers, DVGAs, digital step attenuators, limiters, mixers, prescalers,
phase-locked loops, and switches."
The TDSW020A2T is TID radiation tolerant to 100 krad (Si), making it an
excellent choice for satellites and other high altitude, high reliability applications.
