General Description

The HMC-C071 is a general purpose broadband high isolation non-refl ective GaAs pHEMT SP4T switch housed in a miniature hermetic module with fi eld replaceable SMA connectors. Covering DC to 20 GHz, the switch offers high isolation and low insertion loss. The switch features >42 dB isolation up to 12 GHz and >32 dB isolation up to 20 GHz. The HMC-C071 also provides 2.8 dB insertion loss up to 12 GHz with very fast rise and fall times of 17ns. A CMOS interface allows a single +5V bias voltage at very low DC currents.
