HMC244G16
GaAs MMIC SP4T NON-REFLECTIVE
SWITCH, DC - 4 GHz
v02.1105
General Description
Features
Functional Diagram
The HMC244G16 is a non-re ective SP4T switch in
a 16 lead glass/metal (hermetic) package. Covering
DC to 4 GHz, the switch offers 30~50 dB isolation and
a low insertion loss of 0.7 dB through 3 GHz. A 2:4
TTL/CMOS compatable decoder is integrated on the
switch requiring only 2 control lines and a positive 5V
bias to select each path, replacing 8 control lines nor-
mally required by GaAs SP4T switches.
Low Insertion Loss: 0.7 dB
Non-Re ective Design
Integrated 2:4 TTL Decoder
Single Positive Suppy: Vdd = +5V
16 Lead Hermetic SMT Package
Electrical Speci cations, TA = +25° C, With 0/+5V Control, 50 Ohm System
Typical Applications
The HMC244G16 is ideal for:
• Telecom Infrastructure
• Military Radios, Radar & ECM
• Space Applications
• Test Instrumentation

Evaluation PCB
The circuit board used in the nal 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 package bottom should be connected directly
to the ground plane similar to that shown above. The
evaluation circuit board shown above is available
from Hittite Microwave Corporation upon request.
