CG2214M6-C2

RF Switches Overview

The CG2214M6-C2 is a single-pole double-throw (SPDT) RF switch IC manufactured by CEL. It utilizes pHEMT GaAs technology to operate within a frequency range of 50 MHz to 3 GHz. The component features a typical insertion loss of 0.35 dB and provides 23 dB of off-isolation. It supports high control voltages from 1.8 V to 5 V and functions reliably between -45°C and +85°C. Packaged in a Minimold-6 SMD/SMT format, it is available in Reel, Cut Tape, and MouseReel configurations.

RF Switches Feature Summary

• Utilizes pHEMT GaAs technology for low-loss signal routing
• Supports high control voltage inputs ranging from 1.8 V to 5 V
• Designed for surface mount installation in compact footprints

RF Switches Applications

• Wireless LAN systems
• WiMax infrastructure
• Satellite receivers

RF Switches Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix C2 against official datasheets to confirm package and electrical specifications match design requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status through manufacturer documentation. Ensure procurement channels provide valid traceability for the GaAs technology used. Cross-reference the Minimold-6 footprint dimensions with PCB layout constraints before ordering.

RF Switches Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring SPDT switching up to 3 GHz with minimal signal degradation. Consider the 0.35 dB insertion loss for sensitive receiver chains. Evaluate the 23 dB isolation for channel separation needs. Verify that the operating temperature range meets environmental conditions. Check compatibility with the required control voltage levels for logic interfacing.

RF Switches Part Context

This part belongs to the CEL RF Switch ICs category under Wireless & RF Integrated Circuits. It is related to the UPG2214TK-E2-A, which is an obsolete predecessor. The CG2214M6 variant shares similar electrical characteristics but differs in packaging configuration. Development kits like the CG2214M6-EVAL are available for testing.

RF Switches Replacement Considerations

The UPG2214TK-E2-A is listed as an obsolete alternative. The CG2214M6-C2 serves as a current replacement for discontinued models. Verify pinout and parameter equivalence before substitution.
