MASWSS0176 GaAs SPDT Switch 0.05 - 3 GHz Rev. V1 Features Functional Schematic Low Insertion Loss: 0.35 dB @ 2.4 GHz Moderate Isolation: 21 dB @ 2.4 GHz Low Current Consumption: 5 A @ 2.5 V Lead-Free SOT-26 Package 100% Matte Tin Plating over Copper Halogen-Free "Green" Mold Compound 260C Reflow Compatible RoHS* Compliant Version of MASWSS0005 C=39pF V1 RFC V2 RF1 GND RF2 Description M/A-COM's MASWSS0176 is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC single pole, double throw (SPDT) switch in a low cost, lead-free SOT-26 surface mount plastic package. The MASWSS0176 is ideally suited for applications where 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, Satellite Radio, Blue Tooth, and other receive chain applications. PIN 1 C=39pF C=39pF Pin Configuration Pin No. The MASWSS0176 is fabricated using a 0.5 micron gate length GaAs PHEMT process. The process features full passivation for performance and reliability.

For positive voltage control, external DC blocking capacitors are required on all RF ports. 5. 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 GHz - 3 GHz.
