Abstract
An architecture that increases the power that handling capability of the switches within a transceiver is disclosed. An impedance transformation network is introduced at each of the terminals of a transmit/receive switch. Each impedance transformation network transforms the impedance external to the transmit/receive switch to a lower impedance internal to the switch to increase the power handling capability of the transmit/receive switch.
