Description

The MASWSS0117 is a GaAs pHEMT MMIC single

pole double throw (SPDT) high power switch in a low

cost SC70 6-lead package. The MASWSS0117 is

ideally suited for applications where high power, low

control voltage, low insertion loss, high isolation,

small size and low cost are required.

Typical applications are for CDMA handset systems

that connect separate transceiver and/or GPS

functions to a common antenna, as well as other

related handset and general purpose applications.

The MASWSS0117 can be used in all systems

operating up to 3.0 GHz requiring high power at low

control voltage.

The MASWSS0117 is fabricated using a 0.5 micron

gate length GaAs pHEMT process.
