GW2163 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The GW2163 from Qualcomm is a GaAs MMIC SPDT switch designed for applications requiring dual-band operation at 2.4GHz and 6.0GHz, such as WLAN 802.11a/b/g/n systems.

This switch features low insertion loss, with a typical value of 0.4dB at 2.4-2.5GHz and 0.5dB at 4.9-6.0GHz. It also provides high isolation, rated at 30dB at 2.4-2.5GHz and 33dB at 4.9-6.0GHz for TX to Ant/RX to Ant paths. The isolation between Tx and Rx ports is 30dB at 2.4-2.5GHz and 32dB at 4.9-6.0GHz.

Packaged in a compact DFN 1.5mm×1.5mm 6-lead green package, the GW2163 utilizes a 0.5μm GaAs pHEMT process. It operates with positive voltage control and is suitable for systems employing antenna diversity for transmit and receive functions.
