MXD8661 – SP6T for LTE Diversity and RX
General Description
The MXD8661 is a low loss, high isolation SP6T
switch for LTE diversity and RX applications.
The MXD8661 is compatible with +1.0V control
logic, which is a key requirement for most
cellular transceivers. This part is packaged in a
compact 2mm x 2mm, 14-pin, QFN package
which allows for a small solution size with no
need for external DC blocking capacitors (when
no external DC is applied to the device ports).
Features
Excellent insertion loss and isolation
performance
- 0.6 dB Insertion Loss at 2.7GHz
- 28 dB Isolation at 2.7GHz
Multi-Band operation 100MHz to 3000MHz
Compact 2mm x 2mm in QFN-14 package
No DC blocking capacitors required (unless
external DC is applied to the RF ports)
Applications
2G/3G/4G
antenna
diversity
or
LTE
(FDD/TDD) receiving
