Description
The MASWSS0161 is a GaAs MMIC SPDT switch in
a lead free SOIC-8 lead surface mount plastic
package. This device is ideally suited for use where
low power consumption is required. Typical
applications include transmit/receive switching,
switch matrices and switched filter banks in systems
such as radio and cellular equipment, PCM, GPS,
fiber optic modules, and other battery powered radio
equipment.

4. All specifications apply when operated with control voltages of 0 V for VC low and 5 to 10 V for VC high, and 50 Ω impedance at all RF
ports, unless otherwise specified. High power (greater than 1 W) handling specifications apply to cold switching only. For input powers
under 1 W, hot switching can be used. The high control voltage must be within ± 0.2 V of the supply voltage. External DC blocking
capacitors are required on all RF ports.
5. Typical values listed for middle of frequency range noted.

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.
