GaAs SPDT 2.8 V High Power Switch DC - 3.0 GHz Features • • • • • • MASWSS0029 V2 Functional Schematic Low Voltage Operation: 2.8V High IP3: +60 dBm Low Insertion Loss: 0.40 dB at 1.0 GHz High Isolation: 24.5 dB at 1.0 GHz SOT-26 Package 0.5 micron GaAs PHEMT Process PIN 1 V1 GND RFC 39 pF M/A-COM’s MASWSS0029 is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC single pole double throw (SPDT) high power switch in a low cost SOT-26 package. The MASWSS0029 is ideally suited for applications where high power, low control voltage, low insertion loss, high isolation, small size and low cost are required. The MASWSS0029 is fabricated using a 0.5 micron gate length GaAs PHEMT process. The process features full passivation for performance and reliability. RF1 39 pF Description Typical applications are for CDMA handset systems that connect separate transceiver and/or GPS functions to a common antenna, as well as other related handset and general purpose applications. This part can be used in all systems operating up to 3.0 GHz requiring high power at low control voltage.
