High Isolation Switch Released for 5G Automotive Applications

Skyworks has released the SKY5A1007, a switch in their Sky5 product solutions, designed to support the ever-growing demand for cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) connectivity. The SKY5A1007 is a CMOS, silicon-on-insulator (SOI) double-pole, double-throw (DPDT) switch with high-linearity performance, low insertion loss, and high isolation.

The device enables high speed switching between antennas for high data throughput and minimizes the need for additional filtering. The SKY5A1007 meets the necessary requirements for 5G automotive telematics including operation within cellular, 5GNR and 5.9 GHz C-V2X bands, while supporting the wide temperature range needed for this emerging technology.
