CXG1122EN SP5T GSM Triple-Band/GPRS Antenna Switch Description The CXG1122EN is one of a range of low insertion loss, high power MMIC antenna switches for GSM/ GPRS triple-band, dual-band (CXG1121TN) and applications. The low insertion loss on transmit means increased talk time as the Tx power amplifier can be operated at a lower output level. On-chip logic reduces the component count and simplifies the PCB layout by allowing the direct connection of the switch to digital baseband control lines with the CMOS logic levels. This switch is an SP5T, one antenna can be routed to either of the 2 Tx or 3 Rx ports. It requires 3 CMOS control lines (CTL1, CTL2 and Tx ON). The Sony's GaAs JFET process is used for low insertion loss. An evaluation PCB is available. 16 pin VSON (Plastic) Features • Insertion loss: (Tx) 0.5dB typ. at 34dBm (GSM900) • 3 CMOS compatible control lines • Low second harmonic: –40dBm typ. at 34dBm (GSM900) • Small package size: 16-pin VSON (2.7mm × 3.5mm × 0.9mm) Applications Triple-band handsets using the combinations of followings: • GSM900/DCS1800/PCS1900 • GPRS • DECT Structure GaAs J-FET MMIC Absolute Maximum Ratings (Ta = 25°C) • Bias voltage VDD 7 • Control voltage VCTL 5 • Operating temperature Topr –20 to +80 V V °C GaAs MMICs are ESD sensitive devices.

This should be carried out for a set of devices that represent the process variants. This way a compromise can be found that suits all the variants. The necessary equipment is shown immediately below. Power Meter Fundamental, fo Signal Generator B.P.F. 10dB Coupler Second Harmonic, 2fo Diplexer Load Pull Tuner DC Block D.U.T. DC Block Spectrum Analyzer The device should be mounted on a PCB with 50Ω tracks running from all the RF pins to SMA connectors on the PCB edge (DUT). All the ports should be externally DC blocked and the unused ports should be terminated in 50Ω. All the measurements should be performed at the incident powers for which the harmonic levels are specified in this document. The 2nd harmonic level at the antenna port is measured using the spectrum analyzer and the vertical and horizontal position of the load pull stub adjusted such that this level is minimized. The device should then be removed from the board and an SMA connector mounted such that the source impedance seen by the transmit port at 2fo can be measured using a VNA. Measurements should be de-embedded to the end of the SMA center pin. A network should then be designed to match the impedance of the low pass filter (LPF), which usually comes in front of the device, to the 2fo source impedance that gives sufficiently reduced 2fo levels for all the devices measured. The network should be designed to maintain a good match and insertion loss at the fundamental frequency. –5– CXG1122EN Package Outline Unit: mm 16PIN VSON (PLASTIC) + 0.1 0.8 – 0.05 0.6 3.5 0.05 S A B x2 0.4 0.35 ± 0.1 0.15 S B x4 1.4 0.5 ± 0.2 2.7 2.5 0.35 ± 0.1 S 0.03 ± 0.03 (Stand Off) 0.2 ± 0.01 0.05 M S A-B 0.23 ± 0.02 0.15 S A B Solder Plating 0.13 ± 0.025 + 0.09 0.14 – 0.03 TERMINAL SECTION NOTE: 1) The dimensions of the terminal section apply to the ranges of 0.1mm and 0.25mm from the end of a terminal.
