General Description

the hMc240A is a low cost GaAs MeSFet SpDt switch chip. covering Dc to 4 Ghz, this switch offers high isolation and low insertion loss. RF1 and RF2 are reflective shorts when “off”. the switch can operate using either two negative control logic inputs of -5/0V or two positive control voltage logic inputs of 0/+5V. All data is tested with the chip in a 50 Ohm test fixture connected via 0.025 mm (1 mil) diameter wire bonds of 0.31 mm (12 mils) length.

Features

Broadband performance: Dc - 4 Ghz

Low insertion Loss: 0.5 dB @ 2 Ghz

high iip3: +48 dBm

Small Size: 0.66 x 0.60 x 0.18 mm

Typical Applications

the hMc240A is ideal for:

• Telecom Infrastructure

• Microwave Radio & VSAT

• Military & Space

• Test Instrumentation
