Stripline PIN Diode Switch Modules
V5
MA47200 Series
Features
♦ Broadband 50 Ohm Design Through X Band
♦ High Power Handling
♦ Voltage Ratings to 1000V
♦ Fast Switching Speeds
♦ Hermetically Sealed Package
♦ RoHS Compliant
Description
These M/A-Com Technology Solutions switch modules
consist of a shunt mounted, passivated, PIN diode chip
in a hermetically sealed strip-line package. These
modules are optimized for use in a 50 ohm micro-strip
or strip-line circuit. By incorporating the appropriate
series inductance to produce a matched low pass filter
structure in a zero or reverse bias condition, no external
matching is required. To achieve high isolation, a
forward bias current between +10mA to +100mA is
applied to the center conductor which changes the
module’s inductive impedance from a high to a low-
impedance state causing the RF power to be reflected.
Applications
The M/A-COM Technology Solutions MA47200 series
modules maybe operated as a SPST reflective switch
or as an attenuator by applying the appropriate forward
or reverse DC bias. These broadband modules are
designed to operate at frequencies from VHF through X
Band. A variety of modules are available which offer a
choice of breakdown voltages and switching speeds.
