Description

M/A-COM’s MASWSS0115 is a GaAs PHEMT

MMIC single pole, double throw (SPDT) switch in a

low cost, lead-free SC-70 (SOT-363) surface mount

plastic package. The MASWSS0115 is ideally suited

for applications where very small size and low cost

are required.

Typical applications are dual band systems which

require switching between small signal components

such as filter banks, single-band LNAs, converters,

etc. This part can be used for low power, low loss

requirements in all systems operating up to 3 GHz,

including PCS, GSM, DCS, Blue Tooth, and other

receive chain applications.

The MASWSS0115 is fabricated using a 0.5 micron

gate length GaAs PHEMT process. The process

features full passivation for performance and

reliability.

6. External DC blocking capacitors are required on all RF ports.

7. 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.

Handling Procedures

The following precautions should be observed to avoid dam-

age:

Static Sensitivity

Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive to electro-

static discharge (ESD) and can be damaged by static elec-

tricity. Proper ESD control techniques should be used when

handling these devices.
