ADG936BCP-R-REEL

RF Switches Overview

The ADG936BCP-R-REEL is a wideband dual SPDT RF switch IC from Analog Devices, operating up to 4 GHz. It features low insertion loss of 0.9 dB from DC to 1 GHz and high off-isolation of 36 dB at 1 GHz. The device supports CMOS/LVTTL control logic and functions on a single 1.65 V to 2.75 V power supply. It is available in a 4 mm × 4 mm LFCSP package with a maximum idle time of 10 ns and run time of 11 ns.

RF Switches Feature Summary

• Wideband operation extending to 4 GHz with absorptive switching architecture
• High off-isolation performance of 36 dB at 1 GHz frequency
• Low insertion loss of 0.9 dB across the DC to 1 GHz range
• Compatible with CMOS and LVTTL control logic levels

RF Switches Applications

• Wireless infrastructure equipment requiring signal routing
• Test and measurement instruments needing precise RF path selection
• Broadband communication systems utilizing dual SPDT configurations

RF Switches Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'R' indicates the reflective variant configuration against official Analog Devices documentation. Confirm the LFCSP-20 package type matches design requirements. Ensure compatibility with the EVAL-ADG936EBZ evaluation board for functional validation before integration into final hardware designs.

RF Switches Selection Notes

Select this component when dual SPDT switching within a 4 GHz bandwidth is required. Consider the 1.65 V to 2.75 V supply voltage constraints for system power design. Evaluate the 4 mm × 4 mm LFCSP footprint against available PCB real estate. Compare isolation and insertion loss specifications against alternative switches if higher frequency performance or different control logic is needed.

RF Switches Part Context

This part belongs to the ADG936 family of wideband RF switches manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. The series includes both absorptive and reflective variants, offering dual SPDT configurations. These devices are designed for applications demanding high isolation and low loss in compact surface-mount packages suitable for modern electronic assemblies.

RF Switches Replacement Considerations

The ADG936BRU-REEL7 serves as a pin-compatible alternative in a TSSOP-20 package. Verify that the package change does not impact thermal or mechanical constraints. Ensure electrical parameters remain consistent with system requirements when substituting between package types.
