PE42520C-Z — Overview
PE42520C-Z by pSemi is a component in the RF Switch (SPDT absorptive, 9 kHz-13 GHz) category, supplied by Shenzhen Jinteng Electronics Technology Co., Ltd. (JTDZ Tech) — an independent distributor serving OEMs, ODMs and EMS providers worldwide.
The PE42520C-Z is a broadband absorptive SPDT RF switch built on pSemi's UltraCMOS silicon-on-sapphire process with HaRP technology, covering 9 kHz to 13 GHz in a 16-lead 3 x 3 mm QFN. It delivers 0.80 dB insertion loss and 45 dB isolation at 3 GHz, 66 dBm IIP3, and 36 dBm CW power handling at 8 GHz, with fast 5.5 µs switching and no gate or phase lag. It is aimed at ATE, test-and-measurement and high-performance wireless signal routing.

Parameters above are transcribed from the manufacturer datasheet for reference only. Confirm the current datasheet revision and your application conditions before design-in.
Note: Corrected from the request: the PE42520C-Z is an SPDT (not SP4T) absorptive switch; the pSemi ordering table lists PE42520C-Z as 'PE42520 SPDT RF switch, Green 16-lead 3 x 3 mm QFN, 3000 units/T&R'. P0.1dB compression is specified graphically in the datasheet (Figure 3), so no single numeric P1dB is quoted here. Part is active/production.
