TS86246P High Power RF Switch

Engineered by Tagore Technology and available locally through Wireless Components, the TS86246P GaN SPDT switch combines 200 W CW power handling with outstanding efficiency and linearity.

Designed as a modern replacement for traditional PIN-diode switch assemblies (read more here). GaN Switches eliminate high-voltage biasing, reduces component count, and shrink board area, enabling more compact, reliable, and thermally efficient RF systems across a wide range of critical platforms.

At a Glance

  • Frequency Range: 1 MHz – 1.0 GHz
  • Power Handling: 200 W CW, 330 W peak
  • Insertion Loss: 0.07 dB @ 1 MHz
  • Isolation: 62 dB @ 1 MHz, 49 dB @ 30 MHz
  • Linearity: H2 = 93 dBc, H3 = 94 dBc @ 30 MHz, 50 dBm input
  • Switching Time: 72 μs typical
  • Supply Voltage: 2.6 – 5.25 V (no external RF DC-blocking caps required)
  • Package: Compact 7 mm × 7 mm QFN-48

Applications

  • Private mobile and tactical HF radios
  • Public safety HF handsets
  • Ham radios
  • MRI machines
  • Mechanical relay replacement
  • HF antenna tuning

Replacing PIN-Diode Networks

The TS86246P offers clear advantages over legacy PIN-diode switch assemblies:

  • 55+ parts → 2–4 parts
  • ~300 mm² board → under 30 mm²
  • ~2.5 W bias power → under 1 mW
  • High-voltage rails → single low-voltage supply

The result: smaller, cooler, more reliable RF systems with faster time-to-field.
