High-power hybrid SPDT switch
Abstract:
A switch assembly includes a PIN diode connected between an antenna port and a receive port, a first shunt FET device connected between the receive port and ground, a first series FET device connected between the antenna port and a transmit port, a second shunt FET device connected between the transmit port and ground, and a plurality of bias control contacts configured to receive a corresponding plurality of bias control voltages to forward bias the first shunt FET device and the first series FET device into an ON state and to reverse bias the PIN diode and the second shunt FET device into an OFF state in a transmit mode, and to reverse bias the first shunt FET device and the first series FET device into the OFF state and to forward bias the PIN diode and the second shunt FET device into the ON state in a receive mode.
