SW-228-PIN
GaAs
MACOM’s SW-226/227/228-PIN are GaAs MMIC SPDT switches packaged in lead-free, surface mount CR-2 ceramic style packages. The SW-226- PIN is a terminated SPDT. The SW-227-PIN offers high isolation. The SW-228-PIN offers low insertion loss. This ceramic switch platform has a common footprint for all three designs. The CR-2 package is hermetically sealed, making these switches ideal for space, military radios, and other environmentally harsh applications. Typical applications include synthesizer switching, transmit/receive switching, switch matrices and filter banks in systems such as radio and cellular equipment, PCM, GPS, and fiber optic modules. The SW-226/227/228-PIN are fabricated as monolithic GaAs MMICs using a 1.0 micron MESFET process.
