MASW-006102-13610 (SP6T)

1.Typical switching speed measured from 10% to 90% of detected RF signal driven by TTL compatible drivers using RC

output spiking network, R = 50 – 200Ω , C = 390 – 560pF.

Note:

Operation of the MASW-006102-13610

Operation of the MASW Series of PIN switches is achieved by the simultaneous application of negative DC

current to the low loss port and positive DC current to the remaining isolated switching ports per the Driver

Connections table below. The control currents should be supplied by constant current sources. For insertion

loss, -10mA bias results in approximately –2V, and for Isolation ,+10mA yields approximately +0.9V at the

respective bias nodes. The backside area of the die is the RF and DC return ground plane.
