See truth and control voltage table. SWITCHES - MATRIX - SMT 12 Switch Application Circuit for 4x4 Switch Matrix The HMC596LP4(E) switch can operate as a 4x4 switch by connecting the 4 inputs of two switches directly together. The VL, VH, HL, and HH inputs of the first switch should be connected to the second switch, as illustrated. Mirror image switch performance can be realized by inverting the HV1 & HV2 logic control signals of one of the HMC596LP4(E) switches. The input loading impedance of two switches in parallel should be 31.25 ohms. The output loading impedance on each output should be 75 ohms. The interconnect RF line between the switch’s inputs should be an RF trace with a characteristic impedance of 62.5 ohms. This will allow the switch to remain matched in all possible switch states. The HMC596LP4(E) does not provide output to output (OP1 to OP2) isolation. For this reason, it is recommended that external amplifiers should be used at each output. The amplifier’s reverse isolation will provide output to output isolation, if this is necessary. Each HMC596LP4(E) requires DC blocking capacitors on ALL RF input and output ports. 12 - 120 For price, delivery, and to place orders, please contact Hittite Microwave Corporation: 20 Alpha Road, Chelmsford, MA 01824 Phone: 978-250-3343 Fax: 978-250-3373 Order On-line at www.hittite.com HMC596LP4 / 596LP4E v01.0409 SMT CMOS 4x2 SWITCH MATRIX, 0.2 - 3.0 GHz Evaluation PCB The circuit board used in the final application should be generated with proper RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines at the RF port should have 50 ohm impedance and the package ground leads and exposed paddle should be connected directly to the ground plane similar to that shown above. A generous number of ground vias should be used to interconnect top/bottom ground planes. The evaluation circuit board shown above is available from Hittite Microwave Corporation upon request.
