Is the EN pin on the ADRF5238 active low, and if so, why is this not clearly indicated in the datasheet?

Question

Accepted Answer

Yes, the EN pin on the ADRF5238 is active low. When the EN pin is logic high, the switch is in an all off state, regardless of the logic state of the CTRL pin. Both the RF1 to RFC path and the RF2 to RFC path are in an isolation state. The use of the pin name EN for a function that is active-low is a bit confusing and unfortunate. However, there are no errors in the datasheet.
