Truth Table 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 specified rating. State Latch-Up Avoidance Moisture Sensitivity Level Unlike conventional CMOS devices, UltraCMOS® devices are immune to latch-up. The Moisture Sensitivity Level rating for the PE42441 in the 32-lead 5x5 mm LGA package is MSL3. ® Switching Frequency V1 V2 RF1 on 0 0 RF2 on 1 0 RF3 on 0 1 RF4 on 1 1 Spurious Performance The PE42441 has a maximum 25 kHz switching rate. Switching frequency describes the time duration between switching events. Switching time is the time duration between the point the control signal reaches 50% of the final value and the point the output signal reaches within 10% or 90% of its target value. The typical spurious performance of the PE42441 is -159 dBm/Hz. Figure 4.

Evaluation Board Layouts The SP4T switch EK Board was designed to ease customer evaluation of pSemi’s PE42441. The RF common port is connected through a 50Ω transmission line via the top SMA connector, J1. RF1, RF2, RF3 and RF4 are connected through 50Ω transmission lines via SMA connectors J2, J4, J3 and J5, respectively. A through 50Ω transmission is available via SMA connectors J6 and J7. 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 material with a total thickness of 62 mils. The dual clad top RF layer is Rogers RO4003 material with an 8 mil RF core and er = 3.55. The middle layers provide ground for the transmission lines. The transmission lines were designed using a coplanar waveguide with ground plane model using a trace width of 15 mils, trace gaps of 10 mils, and metal PRT-28605 Document No. DOC-87416-5 | www.psemi.com ©2018–2022 pSemi Corp.
