Description

M/A-COM’s SW-419 is a GaAs MMIC SP4T terminated switch in a

low cost SOIC 24-lead wide body surface mount plastic package.

The SW-419 is ideally suited for use where very low power con-

sumption is required. Typical applications include switch matri-

ces, and filter banks in systems such as: radio and cellular equip-

ment, PCM, GPS, fiber optic modules, and other battery powered

radio equipment.

The SW-419 is fabricated with a monolithic GaAs MMIC using a

mature 1-micron process. The process features full chip passiva-

tion for increased performance and reliability.
