Note: A versatile logic table has been established to allow either C1 or C2 act

as a single pin control and in either polarity.

Typical Applications

The PE42742 provides the high isolation required

by FCC part 15.115 regulation between the

television antenna and the cable plant. The

advantage of the PE42742 is that device

isolation / thru performance is maintained when

power is removed. This unique feature makes the

PE42742 ideal for set-top box and VCR

applications. The PE42742 supports signal flow

from RFC to RF1 and RF2 termination in the

unpowered state; similar to the powered state with

C1=C2 (both high or low).
