Page 3 of 11 PE42650A Product Specification Evaluation Kit The PE42650A Evaluation Kit board was designed to ease customer evaluation of the PE42650A RF switch. Figure 4. Evaluation Board Layout Peregrine Specification 101-0315 DC power is supplied through J10, with VDD on pin 9, and GND on the entire lower row of even numbered pins. To evaluate a switch path, add or remove jumpers on V1 (pin 3), V2 (pin 5), and V3 (pin 7) using Table 5 (adding a jumper pulls the CMOS control pin low and removing it allows the on-board pull-up resistor to set the CMOS control pin high). J10 pins 1, 11, and 13 are N/C. The RF common port (ANT) is connected through a 50 Ohm transmission line via the top SMA connector, J1. RX and TX paths are also connected through 50 Ohm transmission lines via SMA connectors. A 50 Ohm through transmission line is available via SMA connectors J8 and J9. This transmission line can be used to estimate the loss of the PCB over the environmental conditions being evaluated. An open-ended 50 Ohm transmission line is also provided at J7 for calibration if needed. Narrow trace widths are used near each part to improve impedance matching. Figure 5.

Power Dissipation Though the insertion loss for this part is very low, when handling high power RF signals, the part can get quite hot. 3.0 1:1 VSWR (50 OhmLoad) Figure 25 shows the estimated maximum junction temperature of the part for similar conditions. 2.5 Power Dissipated (W) Figure 24 shows the estimated power dissipation for a given incident RF power level. Multiple curves are presented to show the effect of poor VSWR conditions. VSWR conditions that present short circuit loads to the part can cause significantly more power dissipation than with proper matching.

Maximum Junction Temperature 145 Max Junction Temperature (C) Parameter 8:1 VSWR (6.25 OhmLoad) 0.5 Note that both of these charts assume that the case (GND slug) temperature is held at 85C. Special consideration needs to be made in the design of the PCB to properly dissipate the heat away from the part and maintain the 85C maximum case temperature. It is recommended to use best design practices for high power QFN packages: multi-layer PCBs with thermal vias in a thermal pad soldered to the slug of the package. Special care also needs to be made to alleviate solder voiding under the part. Table 6.
