General Description
The HMC336MS8G & HMC336MS8GE are broadband non-reflective GaAs MESFET SPDT switches in low cost 8 lead MSOP8G surface mount packages with an exposed ground paddle. Covering DC to 6 GHz, this switch offers high isolation and low insertion loss. The switch operates using a positive control voltage of 0/+5 Volts, and requires a fixed bias of +5V. This switch is suitable for usage in 50-Ohm or 75-Ohm systems.

The circuit board used in the final application should be generated with proper RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines at the RF port should have 50 ohm impedance and the package ground leads and backside ground slug should be connected directly to the ground plane similar to that shown above. The evaluation circuit board shown above is available from Hittite Microwave Corporation upon request.
