    Abstract: TX/RX switch circuits include an input, a first circulator having a first port coupled to the input, a circuit element having a first port coupled to a second port of the first circulator, a second circulator having a first port coupled to a second port of the circuit element, an output coupled to a second port of the second circulator, a low noise amplifier coupled between a third port of the second circulator and a third port of the first circulator, a bias circuit that is configured to set an impedance at a third port of the circuit element at a first impedance level when operating in transmit mode and to set the impedance at the third port of the circuit element to have a second impedance level when operating in receive mode, and a first PIN diode coupled between an output of the low noise amplifier and electrical ground.
