Product Specification
PE4257
Product Description
The PE4257 is a high-isolation UltraCMOS™ Switch designed
for wireless applications, covering a broad frequency range
from near DC up to 3000 MHz. This single-supply SPDT
switch integrates a two-pin CMOS control interface. It also
provides low insertion loss with extremely low bias
requirements while operating on a single 3-volt supply. In a
typical wireless application, the PE4257 provides
unprecedented isolation and integration.
The PE4257 is manufactured on Peregrine’s UltraCMOS™
process, a patented variation of silicon-on-insulator (SOI)
technology on a sapphire substrate, offering the performance
of GaAs with the economy and integration of conventional
CMOS.

Exceeding absolute maximum ratings may cause
permanent damage. Operation should be restricted to
the limits in the Operating Ranges table. Operation
between operating range maximum and absolute
maximum for extended periods may reduce reliability.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions
When handling this UltraCMOS™ device, observe the
same precautions that you would use with other ESD-
sensitive devices. Although this device contains
circuitry to protect it from damage due to ESD,
precautions should be taken to avoid exceeding the
rating specified.

Switching Frequency
The PE4257 has a maximum 25 kHz switching rate
when the internal negative voltage generator is used
(pin 18=GND). The rate at which the PE4257 can be
switched is only limited to the switching time if an
external -3 V supply is provided at (pin18=V
SS
).

Notes: 1. RF pins 3, 8, and 13 must be at 0 VDC. The RF pins do
not require DC blocking capacitors for proper operation if the
0 VDC requirement is met.
2. Pins 16 and 17 are the CMOS controls that set the four
operating states.
3. Connect pin 18 to GND to enable the negative voltage
generator. Connect pin 18 to V
SS
(-3 V) to bypass and
disable internal -3 V supply generator. See paragraph
“Switching Frequency.”

Product Specification
Evaluation Kit
The SPDT Switch Evaluation Kit board was designed to
ease customer evaluation of the PE4257 SPDT switch.
The RF common port is connected through a 50
Ω
transmission line to J2. Port 1 and Port 2 are
connected through 50
Ω
transmission lines to J1 and
J3. A through transmission line connects SMA
connectors J4 and J5. This transmission line can be
used to estimate the loss of the PCB over the
environmental conditions being evaluated.
The board is constructed of a four metal layer FR4
material with a total thickness of 0.031”. The
transmission lines were designed using a coplanar
waveguide with ground plane (28 mil core, 47.6 mil
width, 30mil gap).
Note the number of vias surrounding the device in the
layout shown in Figure 8. These vias are critical for
obtaining the specified isolation performance for the
device shown in this datasheet.
J6 provides a means for controlling DC and digital
inputs to the device. The provided jumpers short the
package pin to ground for logic low. When the jumper
is removed, the pin is pulled up to VDD for logic high.
When the jumper is in place, 3 µA of current will flow
through the 1 MΩ pull up resistor. This extra current
should not be attributed to the requirements of the
device.
