SW-456 GaAs SPDT Switch DC - 3.0 GHz Rev. V5 Features • • • • Low Cost Plastic: SC-70 (SOT-363) Package Low Insertion Loss: < 0.3 dB @ 900 MHz Low Power Consumption: < 15 µA @ -2.3 Volts Positive or Negative 2.3 to 8 Volt Control Functional Schematic Positive Control Voltage PIN 1 V1 RF1 Description M/A-COM’s SW-456 is a GaAs monolithic switch in a low cost SC-70 (SOT-363) surface mount plastic package. The SW-456 is ideally suited for applications where very low power consumption, low insertion loss, very small size and low cost are required. Typical applications are in dual band systems where switching between small signal components is required, i.e. filter banks, single-band LNA’s, converters, etc. The SW-456 can be used in applications up to 0.25 watts in systems such as cellular, PCS, DCS1800, GSM, CDMA, W-CDMA and other analog/digital wireless communication systems. 1000 pF RFC GND 1000 pF V2 RF2 1000 pF Functional Schematic Negative Control Voltage PIN 1 The SW-456 is fabricated using a mature 0.5 micron PHEMT process. The process features full passivation for performance and reliability.

External DC blocking capacitors are required on all RF ports when using positive voltage control. 4. Insertion loss can be optimized by varying the DC blocking capacitor value, e.g. 1000 pF for 100 MHz - 1 GHz, 39 pF for 0.5 - 3 GHz.
