TELECOMWORLDWIRE-March 25, 2021-Menlo Micro Sets Highest Standard for RF Signal Performance

(C)1994-2021 M2 COMMUNICATIONS http://www.m2.com

Menlo Microsystems, Inc., known for reinventing the electronic switch with its Ideal Switch(TM) technology, has announced a significant performance milestone that will drive breakthrough improvements in RF signal performance across multiple industries, the company said.

According to Menlo Micro characterization tests, the new MM5130 Ideal Switch product, released to production last year and now shipping in volume, has achieved an IP3 linearity of greater than 95 dBm, enabling significant reductions in distortion for RF systems.

The MM5130 switch's 95 dBm IP3 level delivers up to 10,000x improvement (about 20 dB to 40 dB) over existing RF electromechanical relays and solid-state switches. This ultra-high IP3 metric is traditionally reserved for only the highest performing RF mechanical switches and relays.

When compared to solid-state devices, this level of IP3 is also difficult to achieve from currently available semiconductor processes on the market. Enhanced IP3 performance results in size, weight, power and cost (SWaP-C) improvements as power amplifiers and other RF components in the chain can be scaled back in power and reduced in size, ultimately enhancing overall system performance.

Menlo Micro is engaging with 5G infrastructure manufacturers, which have conveyed the...
