Abstract
In one embodiment, an apparatus includes: a receiver pad to receive an incoming radio frequency (RF) signal; a first inductor coupled to the receiver pad; a second inductor coupled to the first inductor at an inter-inductor node; a first electrostatic discharge (ESD) circuit coupled to the inter-inductor node; a second ESD circuit coupled to the second inductor; a low noise amplifier (LNA) coupled to the second inductor to receive and amplify the incoming RF signal; a transmit-receive (TR) switch coupled to the LNA, where in a receive mode, the TR switch is to enable the LNA to receive the incoming RF signal; a transmit pad to output an outgoing RF signal; and a power amplifier (PA) coupled to the transmit pad, where in a transmit mode, the TR switch is to decouple the LNA.
