Lead-Free 1 mm 6-Lead PDFN Package
RoHS* Compliant and 260°C Reflow Compatible
Description
M/A-COM’s MASW-009444 is a GaAs PHEMT
MMIC single pole two throw (SP2T) switch in a
miniature 1x1mm 6-lead PDFN package. The
MASW-009444 is ideally suited for applications
where low control voltage, low insertion loss,
moderate isolation, and small size are required.
Typical applications are for filter and antenna
switching in handset systems that connect separate
receive functions to a common antenna, as well
as other related handset and general purpose
applications. This part can be used in all systems
operating up to 6 GHz requiring high power at low
control voltage.
The MASW-009444 is fabricated using a 0.5 micron
gate length GaAs PHEMT process. The
process features full passivation for performance
and reliability.
* Restrictions on Hazardous Substances, European Union Directive 2002/95/EC.

Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
Static Sensitivity
Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive
to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be
damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control
techniques should be used when handling these
devices.
