The MASWSS0117 is ideally suited for applications where high power, low control voltage, low insertion loss, high isolation, small size and low cost are required. 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. The MASWSS0117 can be used in all systems operating up to 3.0 GHz requiring high power at low control voltage. The MASWSS0117 is fabricated using a 0.5 micron gate length GaAs PHEMT process. The process features full passivation for performance and reliability.
