HMC348LP3 / 348LP3E v05.0805 SWITCHES - SMT 8 GaAs MMIC SPDT NON-REFLECTIVE CATV SWITCH, DC - 2.5 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC348LP3 / HMC348LP3E is ideal for: High Isolation: >80 dB @ 5 MHz (50 Ohm) >55 dB @ 1 GHz (50 Ohm) • 75 Ohm Systems CATV Signal Distribution, Cable Modem Headend & DBS IF Switching • 50 Ohm Systems Basestation Infrastructure & Test Equipment “All Off” Isolation State Non-Reflective Design, 75 Ohm Terminations 3x3 mm SMT Package General Description Functional Diagram The HMC348LP3 & HMC348LP3E are non-reflective GaAs MESFET SPDT switches in low cost leadless QFN surface mount plastic packages ideal for CATV applications. Covering DC to 2.5 GHz, the switch offers high isolation, low insertion loss, integrated 75 Ohm terminations and an “all off” state. The switch features >80 dB isolation at 5 MHz and >55 dB isolation up to 1 GHz. The switch operates using complementary positive control voltage logic lines of +5/0V and requires a +5V bias supply (Vdd). This switch offers excellent performance in both 50 Ohm & 75 Ohm systems for either SPDT or SPST functions.

Blocking capacitors are required. 8, 13 ACG1, ACG2 External capacitors to ground are required. Select value for optimal isolation below 500 MHz. 10 B See truth table and control voltage table. 11 A See truth table and control voltage table. Interface Schematic Application Circuit The value of capacitors C1 & C2 are critical for low frequency isolation performance below 500 MHz. 3300 pF 0402 size capacitors are recommended for optimal isolation down to 5 MHz. If the frequency of operation is above 500 MHz then 100 pF to 300 pF 0402 capacitors will be sufficient. 8 - 218 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 HMC348LP3 / 348LP3E v05.0805 GaAs MMIC SPDT NON-REFLECTIVE CATV SWITCH, DC - 2.5 GHz Evaluation PCB (50 Ohms) SWITCHES - SMT 8 List of Materials for Evaluation PCB 106343 [1] Item Description J1 - J3 PCB Mount SMA RF Connector J4 - J7 DC Pin R1 - R2 100 Ohm Resistor, 0402 Pkg.
