Infineon Ships Industry's First CMOS RF Switches with GaAs Performance

Today Infineon Technologies announced it is shipping in volume the world’s first RF switches that are manufactured in a CMOS-based process on silicon wafers and offer the equivalent performance of RF switches manufactured in Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) process technology - a technology break-through that has never before been achieved. So far, CMOS-based RF switches had to be manufactured on dedicated, much more expensive sapphire wafers to reach the performance of GaAs switches.
