Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC574MS8 & HMC574MS8E are low-cost SPDT switches in 8-lead MSOP packages for use in transmit/receive applications which require very low distortion at high incident power levels. The device can control signals from DC to 3 GHz and is especially suited for Cellular/3G infrastructure, WiMAX and WiBro applications with only 0.3 dB typical insertion loss. The design provides 5 watt power handling performance and +65 dBm third order intercept at +8 Volt bias. RF1 and RF2 are reflective shorts when “Off”.

Typical Application Circuit
Notes: 1. Set logic gate and switch Vdd = +3V to +5V and use HCT series logic to provide a TTL driver interface. 2. Control inputs A/B can be driven directly with CMOS logic (HC) with Vdd of +3 to +8 Volts applied to the CMOS logic gates and to pin 4 of the RF switch. 3. DC Blocking capacitors are required for each RF port as shown. Capacitor value determines lowest frequency of operation. 4. Highest RF signal power capability is achieved with Vdd set to +8V. The switch will operate properly (but at lower RF power capability) at bias voltages down to +3V.
