Failsafe Operation - Tx “On” When Unpowered
Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC546LP2 & HMC546LP2E are failsafe
SPDT switches in leadless DFN surface mount
plastic packages for use in transmit-receive, and
LNA protection applications which require very
low distortion and high power handling of up to 10
watts. The device can control signals from 200 -
2700 MHz* and is especially suited for WiMAX and
WiBro repeaters, PMR and automotive telematic
applications. The design provides exceptional P0.1dB
of +40 dBm and +65 dBm IIP3 on the Transmit (Tx)
port. The failsafe topology allows the switch to pro-
vide a low loss path from RFC to Tx, when no DC
power is available.
