Lowell MA — Tyco Electronics M/A-COM has announced the MASW-008955, a DC-3.5 GHz SP3T RoHS compliant switch for applications that require high linearity, low insertion loss, and fast settling time over a wide frequency range in an ultra small package size.
Typical applications for this product include filter and antenna switching in WLAN or WLAN systems that connect separate receive functions to a common antenna. The switching time required from the software/baseband to the output power at the antenna can vary widely from application to application. This part can be used in all systems operating up to 3.5 GHz requiring low control voltage.
The MASW-008955 is fabricated on a low-cost 0.5-micron gate-length GaAs process with full passivation added for robust reliability, which is achieved in a miniature 2-mm 8-lead PDFN package. Each switch is 100 percent RF tested to ensure performance compliance.
