Unlike traditional automotive RF switches limited to single bands and requiring multiple devices for拼接, this product's core advantage lies in0.1GHz–10GHzseamless full-band coverageWiFi,UWB, andV2X, effectively simplifying hardware architecture, reducing material and development costs, and offering adaptability and versatility far exceeding conventional automotive components.


The product delivers solid and excellent RF performance across all bands:0.1–0.96GHzlow-band insertion loss is only0.2dB, with isolation reaching up to30dB,ensuring near-zero signal attenuation and no crosstalk;2.4G/5G WiFimid-band insertion loss is controlled within0.28–0.50dB, guaranteeing smooth and stable vehicle connectivity; core7.125GHzhigh-band achieves0.60dBultra-low insertion loss and20dBhigh isolation, maintaining stable operation even at the10GHzultra-high frequency upper limit, perfectly meeting the needs for full-scenario high-frequency switching in vehicles.


The deviceswitching speed reaches 185ns, satisfying high real-time interaction requirements forUWBandV2X, supporting keyless unlocking at distances up to20meters and rapid triggering of safety functions. It also features45μAultra-low power consumption and31dBmpower handling capability, balancing energy-saving needs for new energy vehicles with application scenarios requiring fast switching. Paired with1.1×0.7mmultra-compact packaging, it achieves minimal volume, perfectly aligning with the trend toward miniaturization and integration in automotive electronics mass production.


Leveraging full-band coverage, high-reliability automotive quality, and excellent RF performance,AWR13012DNR-Q1it effectively resolves industry pain points such as limited band coverage and high high-frequency loss in traditional automotive switches, providing comprehensive protection for the convenience and safety of smart vehicles through stable and efficient signal switching capabilities.
