Overview
The ARD1204HQ is an RF switch IC from Panasonic Electric Works, designed for cellular applications. It features a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) contact form and operates up to a frequency of 18 GHz. The device utilizes a coil voltage of 4.5 VDC and employs solder terminal termination. It functions as a coaxial switch with a 50 Ohm impedance characteristic.
Feature Summary
- Designed specifically for cellular RF signal routing applications
- Provides SPDT switching topology for signal path selection
- Operates at high frequencies up to 18 GHz
- Utilizes low coil voltage actuation for efficient control
Applications
- Cellular base station antenna switching
- RF test and measurement equipment signal routing
- Wireless communication system front-end modules
Procurement Notes
Verify the specific suffix and package variant against the official Panasonic datasheet to ensure compatibility with your design requirements. Confirm that the 4.5 VDC coil voltage aligns with your control circuitry. Check for RoHS compliance status in the latest manufacturing documentation before finalizing procurement orders.
Selection Notes
Select this component when high-frequency performance up to 18 GHz is required for cellular applications. Ensure the SPDT configuration meets the signal routing needs. Verify that the available solder terminal termination style fits the PCB layout constraints. Compare specifications against similar ARD series parts if alternative packaging or pinouts are needed.
Part Context
The ARD1204HQ belongs to the ARD series of RF switches manufactured by Panasonic Electric Works. This series focuses on providing reliable switching solutions for wireless communication infrastructure. The part is distinct from the AQV series, which consists of PhotoMOS relays rather than RF coaxial switches.
Replacement Considerations
Consult the Panasonic ARD series catalog for direct substitutes. The ARD1204H is a related model within the same family; verify if it meets all electrical requirements including the 18 GHz frequency limit and SPDT configuration before considering it as an alternative.
