RF switches are used extensively in wireless systems for signal routing finding wide use in switching signals from antennas to the transmit and receive chains. They are one of the highest volume RF devices in use today as several devices are typically contained in a block diagram. RF switches fall into the two main categories of electromechanical and solid-state switches. While electromechanical switches have not found wide use in RF applications since the PIN diode was developed, they are making some new in-roads in certain applications in the form of micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) devices. Solid state switches are typically more reliable and exhibit longer lifetime than electromechanical switches plus offer faster switching times. However, solid-state switches typically have higher intrinsic ON resistance and more harmonic distortion than mechanical switches. Solid state switches: There are two main types of solid state switches: field-effect transistors (FETs) and PIN diodes. Today’s CMOS silicon-on-insulator (SOI) and silicon-on-sapphire (SOS) switches are starting to challenge GaAs MMIC switches in many applications as their cutoff frequencies and breakdown voltages improve. Each technology has its advantages and disadvantages which can be leveraged for various applications for an optimal solution. Up until a few years ago, MEMS switches were considered an emerging technology that had reliability and reproducibility issues but recent generations have solved many of those problems making them very competitive in several applications. In this report, RF solid state switches and RF MEMS switches are mainly discussed.
The market size continues to grow.
With the construction of 5G networks and the surging demand for IoT devices, the overall scale of the RF front-end industry (will further drive the expansion of the RF switch market.
Technological upgrading and integration
Integration module trend: High-end RF front-end modules (such as L-PAMiD, L-DiFEM) gradually replace discrete components. International leading enterprises consolidate their advantages through technological barriers, while domestic manufacturers accelerate their breakthrough in the low-end switch market and then transition towards an integrated direction.
New material application: Gallium Nitride (GaN), MEMS, etc. improve the power density and reliability of RF switches, adapting to the requirements of high-frequency (such as millimeter wave) communication.
Diversification of application scenarios
Driven by 5G and IoT: Large-scale deployment of 5G base stations and the popularization of intelligent devices promote the application of RF switches in base station antenna tuning and multi-band switching in mobile phones.
Expansion of emerging fields: The demand for high isolation and low loss RF switches increases in scenarios such as autonomous driving and satellite communication, expanding the market boundaries.
Regional market differentiation
Acceleration of localization in China: Domestic enterprises seize the mid-to-low-end market with cost-performance advantages and customized services, gradually penetrating into the high-end sector and replacing imported products.
Europe and the United States focus on technological innovation: Mature markets consolidate technological leadership through mergers and acquisitions, focusing on millimeter wave frequency bands and environmentally compliant products.
Policy and sustainability-driven
Environmental regulations tightening: Global circular economy policies promote the substitution of metal packaging for plastic, indirectly promoting the application of RF switches in environmentally friendly equipment.
China's policy support: Substitution of domestic products and technology research and development subsidies accelerate industry upgrading, helping domestic enterprises break through the high-end market.
