AS179-92LF

Skyworks Solutions · Analog Switches, Multiplexers · SC-70-6(SOT-363)

AS179-92LF from Skyworks Solutions, in a SC-70-6(SOT-363). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 J3 passive RF port J3. One of the two 'throw' RF ports of the SPDT switch; 50 Ω characteristic impedance. Requires a 100 pF DC-blocking capacitor for >500 MHz operation (larger values for lower frequencies).
2 GND power_in Ground return for the switch. Must be tied to the PCB ground plane with a low-inductance connection for proper RF performance.
3 J2 passive RF port J2. The other 'throw' RF port of the SPDT switch; 50 Ω characteristic impedance. Requires a 100 pF DC-blocking capacitor for >500 MHz operation (larger values for lower frequencies).
4 V1 input DC control voltage input V1. Complementary control with V2 selects the active RF path. VCTL low = 0 to 0.2 V (@ 20 μA max); VCTL high = 2.0 V (@ 100 μA max) or 5.0 V (@ 200 μA max). Absolute maximum range -1.2 V to +8.0 V.
5 J1 passive RF common port J1 (the 'pole' of the SPDT). Routed to either J2 or J3 depending on the V1/V2 control state; 50 Ω characteristic impedance. Requires a 100 pF DC-blocking capacitor for >500 MHz operation.
6 V2 input DC control voltage input V2. Complementary control with V1 selects the active RF path. VCTL low = 0 to 0.2 V (@ 20 μA max); VCTL high = 2.0 V (@ 100 μA max) or 5.0 V (@ 200 μA max). Absolute maximum range -1.2 V to +8.0 V.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
as179-92lf.step 99 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
as179-92lf-etched.step 1.7 MB You want the part with AS179-92LF already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 434 faces against 117 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
