The PE4270 is a is a high-isolation switch designed for CATV
applications, covering a broad frequency range from 1 to 3000
MHz. This single-supply SPST switch offers a single-pin
CMOS control interface with industry leading CTB
performance. It also provides low insertion loss, high isolation
and extremely low bias requirements while operating on a
single 3-volt supply. In a typical CATV application, the PE4270
provides for a cost effective and manufacturable solution vs.
mechanical relays.

Latch-Up Avoidance
Unlike conventional CMOS devices, UltraCMOS™
devices are immune to latch-up.
Device Description
The PE4270 high isolation SPST CATV switch is
designed to support CATV applications such as
premise disconnect of a CATV signal path. This
function is typically performed by bulky and
expensive mechanical relays. The high isolation
characteristics, high compression point, and
integrated 75-ohm terminations make the PE4270
an ideal, cost effective and manufacturable
product of choice.
The control logic input pin (CTRL) is typically
driven by a 3-volt CMOS logic level signal, and
has a threshold of 50% of VDD. For flexibility to
support systems that have 5-volt control logic
drivers, the control logic input has been designed
to handle a 5-volt logic HIGH signal. (A minimal
current will be sourced out of the VDD pin when the

The board is constructed of a two metal layer FR4
material with a total thickness of 0.031”. The
bottom layer provides ground for the RF
transmission lines. The transmission lines were
designed using a coplanar waveguide model with
trace width of 0.021”, trace gaps of 0.030”,
dielectric thickness of 0.028”, metal thickness of
0.0021” and εr of 4.6. Note that the predominate
mode for these transmission lines is coplanar
waveguide with a ground plane.
Peregrine Specification 101/0167 (with F connectors)
LI
FE
The PE4270 EK board was designed to ease
customer evaluation of Peregrine’s high
performance SPST CATV MOSFET switch. RF1
is connected through a 75 Ω transmission line via
the top left F connector, J1. RF2 is connected
through a 75 Ω transmission line via the top right
F connector, J2. A 75 Ω through transmission line
is available via F connectors J3 and J4. This
transmission line can be used to estimate the loss
of the PCB over the environmental conditions
being evaluated. VDD is supplied via J6-2, while
the control logic voltage is supplied via J5-2. It is
the responsibility of the customer to determine
proper supply decoupling for their design
application. It has been observed that by
removing C1 and C2 from the evaluation board
has not shown to degrade RF performance.
