PE53231 Dual-Channel Switch + LNA Module for 3.5-4.0 GHz
San Diego – June 13, 2023 – pSemi® Corporation, a Murata company leading in the
design and development of semiconductor integration, today announced two multi-chip
modules featuring dual-channel switches, the
PE53230 for 3.3-3.8 GHz and the
PE53231 for 3.5-4.0 GHz. Each module contains two switches and two LNAs
for high and low band frequencies. The new module portfolio delivers the lowest
noise figure in the industry, at less than 1 dB, enabling best-in-class receiver
sensitivity and performance while handling 20 W average input power enabling
removal of external circuitry.
Built for applications across wireless infrastructure including TDD-LTE macro
and micro cells, 5G massive MIMO systems and TDD-based communication systems, the
new modules feature high gain and gain flatness. They can function as a failsafe
with unexpected high-power signals coming in from Tx, while improving receiver channel
sensitivity with low noise figures. Combining high linearity (IIP3) with low power
consumption, the new modules are highly integrated solutions that do not require
any external matching networks.
"We are proud to set the record with the lowest noise figure the industry has
ever seen, delivering better receiver sensitivity and higher performance for our
customers' systems," said Vikas Choudhary, vice president of global sales, marketing
and system engineering, pSemi. "By providing MIMO architecture with the highest
level of integration of receiver front end, we achieve high power handling, high
linearity, and low noise-figure for 5G mMIMO active antenna systems – helping advance
the entire wireless ecosystem."
Offered in a compact 6×6mm LGA package, the PE53230 and PE53231 products feature
high gain of more than 36 dB and fast-switching time of less than 600 nanoseconds.
With low power consumption of less than 500 mW/channel, these integrated solutions
lead the industry with the highest average input power handling at 20 W.
Samples for the PE53230 and PE53231 are available now and are expected to be
commercially available Q1 2024. For more information, please visit
