MASWSS0117 GaAs SPDT 2.7 V High Power Switch DC - 3.0 GHz Functional Block Diagram Features • • • • • • Rev. V3 Low Voltage Operation: 2.7 V High IP3: +56 dBm Low Insertion Loss: 0.30 dB at 1 GHz High Isolation: 25 dB at 1 GHz SC70 6-Lead Package 0.5 micron GaAs PHEMT Process Description The MASWSS0117 is a GaAs pHEMT MMIC single pole double throw (SPDT) high power switch in a low cost SC70 6-lead package. The MASWSS0117 is ideally suited for applications where high power, low control voltage, low insertion loss, high isolation, small size and low cost are required. Typical applications are for CDMA handset systems that connect separate transceiver and/or GPS functions to a common antenna, as well as other related handset and general purpose applications. The MASWSS0117 can be used in all systems operating up to 3.0 GHz requiring high power at low control voltage. The MASWSS0117 is fabricated using a 0.5 micron gate length GaAs pHEMT process. The process features full passivation for performance and reliability.

For positive voltage control, external DC blocking capacitors are required on all RF ports. 3. 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.
