HITTITE HMC-C058

HMC-C058
v00.0109
GaAs MMIC SPDT NON-REFLECTIVE
SWITCH, DC - 18 GHz
Features
High Isolation: >65 dB up to 6 GHz
>50 dB up to 18 GHz
Low Insertion Loss: 2 dB @ 8 GHz
2.8 dB @ 12 GHz
Fast Switching: 3 ns Rise/Fall Times
Typical Applications
Non-Reflective Design
The HMC-C058 is ideal for:
Hermetically Sealed Module
• Fiber Optics & Broadband Telecom
Field Replaceable SMA connectors
• Microwave Radio & VSAT
-55 to +85 °C Operating Temperature
• Military Radios, Radar, & ECM
• Test Instrumentation
The HMC-C058 is a general purpose broadband
high isolation non-reflective GaAs MESFET SPDT
switch housed in a miniature hermetic module with
field replaceable SMA connectors. Covering DC to
18 GHz, the switch offers high isolation and low
insertion loss. The switch features >65 dB isolation
up to 6 GHz and >50 dB isolation up to 18 GHz. A
CMOS interface allows a single +5V bias voltage at
very low DC currents.
