M/A-COM’s MASWSS0201 is a broadband GaAs
PHEMT MMIC SPDT terminated switch in a low
cost, lead-free 3 mm 12-lead PQFN package. The
MASWSS0201 is ideally suited for applications
where an unpowered on state is critical in a single
control line SPDT terminated switch.
The
unpowered condition is the same as the VC = 0
condition. This part can also be configured as a
reflective switch with minimal impact to the RF
performance.

2. M/A-COM recommends that all unused (N/C) pins be
connected to ground. All data on this datasheet was taken
with N/C pins connected to ground.
3. Terminated grounds require DC blocking capacitors; see
application schematic.
4. The exposed pad centered on the package bottom must be
connected to RF and DC ground.

Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
Static Sensitivity
Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive
to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be
damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control
techniques should be used when handling these
devices.
M/A-COM’s AN3007 Application Note outlines a
method for ESD sensitivity mitigation. It can be
found at the Tech/Apps section of the
MACOM.COM website.
11. Non-connected pins (P1 and P5) are shown connected to
ground as recommended. All data on this datasheet was
taken with N/C pins connected to ground.
12. Application schematic shown is for terminated
configuration. For non-terminated operation Term 1 and
Term 2 ground pins are left open. See application section
for data in unterminated configuration.
