Peregrine Semiconductor Introduces the First High Frequency RF SOI MixerSAN FRANCISCO, May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- IMS 2016 – In booth #2129 Peregrine Semiconductor Corp., founder of RF SOI (silicon on insulator) and pioneer of advanced RF solutions, announces the addition of the UltraCMOS® PE41901 image reject mixer into its growing portfolio of high frequency RF SOI products. The PE41901 is a complete monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) solution, and it is the first high frequency RF SOI mixer. Based on Peregrine's UltraCMOS technology, this mixer provides a reliable, repeatable and consistent solution for frequency-mixing applications. The PE41901 is ideal for test and measurement systems and Ku band earth terminals such as very small aperture terminal (VSAT) and point-to-point communication systems. Image reject mixers provide an integrated phase-canceling capability by removing the unwanted image signal from the output. This type of mixer reduces the number and complexity of the filters required in a system, resulting in minimized board space and design effort. The PE41901 is Peregrine's first image reject mixer and Peregrine's first mixer at high frequencies. "Peregrine's UltraCMOS high frequency portfolio debunks the industry's perceived boundaries of RF SOI technology," says Kinana Hussain, director of marketing at Peregrine Semiconductor. "The PE41901 image reject mixer joins Peregrine's 40 GHz switch and MPAC product family in demonstrating the high frequency capabilities of RF SOI technology. It is our UltraCMOS technology platform that enables Peregrine to reach these high frequencies without compromising performance or reliability." Features, Packaging, Price and Availability Samples and evaluation kits are available now. Offered in a 24-lead 4 x 4 mm QFN package, the PE41901 is $14.40 each for 1k-quantity orders and $12.26 each for 5k-quantity orders.
