RF IC's or Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits are specific semiconductor components commonly used in wireless devices and mobile phones. Here at RS, we offer a number of different RF IC technology types such as receivers, transmitters, transceivers and switch circuits.

RF IC Types

• RF Receivers - Receivers are components that are designed to receive radio frequency signals from other devices.
• RF Transmitters - Transmitters are used in wireless devices to transmit the radio frequency signals between two devices.
• RF Transceivers - Transceivers are components similar to receivers in the way they are designed to receive radio frequency signals but they can also transmit these signals too just like transmitters.
• RF Switch Circuits - A switch circuit is a component that routes high-frequency signals through transmission paths, they also support the integration of multiple radios that use a signal antenna.

RF IC Applications

RF ICs can be used in a range of different wireless devices and different applications here are just a few:

• Communications,
• Remote Controls,
• Car Alarm Systems,
• Automation,
• Security and CCTV,
• Keyless Entry Systems.
