PHSX2-0308-53-13

High-power SPDT PIN diode RF switches handle 200W CW with fast 1µs switching, delivering low loss and high isolation for radar, comms, ATE, and defense applications.

SPDT (Single-Pole Double-Throw) high-power PIN diode RF switches capable of handling 200 Watts CW (continuous wave) are specialized components used in demanding RF and microwave systems.

Their high-power handling and fast switching characteristics make them ideal for several critical applications, including:

  • RF Transmit/Receive (T/R) Switching in radar or communication systems where the same antenna is used for both transmitting and receiving.
  • Antenna Selection / Redundancy Switching in base stations, military comms, or shipboard systems to switch between multiple antennas or systems.
  • High-Power RF Testing Systems in automated test equipment (ATE) for high-power amplifiers, transmitters, or filters.
  • Military and Aerospace Systems in ECM (Electronic Countermeasures), radar, or satellite uplink/downlink path routing.
