U2C-1SP2T-63VHUSB / I2C / SPI SPDT Switch 50Ω 10 to 6000 MHz Rev. OR M164252 EDR-11652 U2C-1SP2T-63VH RAV 180119 RoHS Compliant See our web site for RoHS Compliance methodologies and qualifications Case Style: NR2563 Key Features Feature Advantages Multiple control interfaces (I2C, SPI & USB) USB provides a quick and easy PC control method with full software support, while I 2C allows multiple switches to be controlled in parallel from a microcontroller / embedded system using minimal hardware (2 wire control) RF SPDT absorptive switch Wideband (10 to 6000 MHz) with low insertion loss (4 dB typ.), high isolation (110 dB typ.), and high power rating (+33 dBm terminated power). Daisy chain SPI control Allows connecting up to 30 units in series to a single power supply and SPI control High Linearity (IP3 +52 dBm typ.) Results in little or negligible inter-modulation generation, meeting requirements for digital communications signals. DC Blocking at RF ports Built in blocking capacitors eliminate the need for external DC blocking circuitry at RF ports. The Big Deal
- USB and I2C and SPI power & control
- High power handling (2W, hot switching)
- Ultra high isolation (110 dB over full frequency range)
- Small case (3.0” x 2.0” x 0.47”) Trademarks: Windows is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and other countries. Linux is a registered trademark of Linus Torvalds.

Solid state Product Overview Mini-Circuits’ U2C-1SP2T-63VH is a high isolation, high power, absorptive SPDT switch with USB, I 2C and SPI control. The fast switching, solid state switch operates from 10 MHz to 6000 MHz with 700 ns typical switching speed. High linearity (+52 dBm typ IP3), and very high isolation (110 dB typical) allow the model to be used for a wide variety of RF applications. Full software support is provided for USB control, including our user-friendly GUI application for Windows and a full API and programming instructions for both Windows and Linux environments (32-bit and 64-bit systems). The latest version of the full software package can be downloaded from https://www.minicircuits.com/softwaredownload/solidstate.html at any time. Alternatively, the SPI and I2C interfaces provide options for controlling multiple switches at once via a simple serial interface (typically using a microcontroller), supporting up to 8 switches connected in parallel with I2C or up to 30 switches connected in series with SPI. The U2C-1SP2T-63VH is housed in a compact, rugged metal case (3.0” x 2.0” x 0.47”) with 3 SMA (F) connectors (COM, J1 and J2), a USB Mini-B and three 10-pin digital connector for control and power via USB, I2C and SPI.

Note: Power supply is needed from only one port at a time. Power can be supplied to USB port, I2C port, or SPI in port according to the control method used. ‘SPI Control & Power Out’ port is used only to transfer power and control to additional units when con- necting multiple units in “Daisy Chain” configuration.

The serial interface is a 2-bit serial in, parallel-out shift register buffered by a transparent latch. in a “Daisy Chain” configuration, all controlled by a single controller. ister control the switch. When LE is brought LOW, data in the shift register is latched. logic LOW the switch will not respond to LE. If Lock is not required it can be kept constantly at logic high. control should be entered before raising the LE(see figures 2-4 for connecting units in daisy chain). operation is defined by Figure 1: Serial Interface Timing Diagram and Table 2: Serial Interface AC Characteristics.
- LE is connected in parallel to all units in a daisy chain using the switches internal buffers to prevent control current from increasing as more
- Mini-Circuits’ SPI converter, model RS232/USB-SPI, can be used to provide a single USB or RS232 interface for up to 30 daisy-chained

U2C-1SP2T-63VHUSB / I2C / SPI RF SPDT Switch Parameter Conditions Min. Typ. Max. Units Voltage levels Logic High Voltage Input 2.0 − 3.3 V Logic Low Voltage Input 0 − 0.8 Clock Frequency − − − 400 kHz I2C communication parameters The I2C is a short-range synchronous communication protocol for simple 2-wire communication with slave devices using clock (SCL) and data (SDA) connections. The U2C-1SP2T-63VH interface also includes 3 address pins (A0, A1 and A2), allowing up to 8 switches to be controlled independently from a single master with shared SDA and SCL connections. All I2C pins in the U2C-1SP2T-63VH are connected to an internal pullup resistor so will float to logic 1 when disconnected. This sets a default address of 111 for all units (decimal 7). Addresses from 0 to 7 can be set by externally grounding the relevant address pins (A0, A1 and A2). The I2C functionality is limited to setting or reading switch states. Control sequences are sent to the switch in several bytes on the data connection, enclosed by a start and stop signal, and clocked at up to 400 kHz. The switch will acknowledge each byte received with a single “ACK” bit (logic 1) on the same data connection. To send a command to the switch 3 bytes will be sent: 1. Control byte (1010A2A1A0R/W) Where: 1010 = Control code for U2C-1SP2T-63VH A2A1A0 = 3-bit address for the U2C-1SP2T-63VH switch module R/W = Read / write select bit (‘0’ to write or ‘1’ to read) Example: Control byte = 10101000 Address = 100 (binary) = 4 (decimal) R/W = 0 (write to switch) ‘0’ (GND) ‘0’ (GND) ‘0’ (GND) RF Ports U2C-1SP2T-63VH Address 0 SCL SDA RF Ports U2C-1SP2T-63VH Address 1 SCL SDA RF Ports U2C-1SP2T-63VH Address 2 SCL SDA RF Ports U2C-1SP2T-63VH Address 7 SCL SDA ‘1’ (Vcc) ‘0’ (GND) ‘0’ (GND) ‘0’ (GND) ‘1’ (Vcc) ‘0’ (GND) ‘1’ (Vcc) ‘1’ (Vcc) ‘1’ (Vcc) I2C Master SCL SDA 2. Switch selector byte (00000001) - U2C-1SP2T-63VH contains only 1 switch so this byte is always 00000001. 3. Switch state byte (00000XYZ) - The switch state, represented by a binary string according to the truth table below. Switch state Switch state byte Port behavior COM J1 J2 Disconnected 0000 0000 Terminated Internally (50Ω) Terminated Internally (50Ω) Terminated Internally (50Ω) COM -> 1 0000 0001 Connected to J1 Connected to COM Terminated Internally (50Ω) COM -> 2 0000 0010 Connected to J2 Terminated Internally (50Ω) Connected to COM In I2C protocol the Data line may not change states while the Clock is high, except for the start and stop signals which enclose each sequence of bytes. While the Clock is high a falling edge (transition from logic 1 to logic 0) signifies the start of a sequence, while a rising edge (transition from logic 0 to logic 1) signifies a stop signal. All other transitions must occur while the clock is low.
