M/A-COM’s MASWSS0184 is a broadband GaAs PHEMT MMIC diversity switch available in a leadfree 3 mm 12-lead PQFN package. The MASWSS0184 is ideally suited for applications where very small size and high linear power are required. Typical applications include 2.5 & 3.5 GHz WiMax, WLAN MESH networks, fixed wireless access, and other higher power systems. Designed for high power, this DPDT switch maintains high linearity up to 4.0 GHz. The MASWSS0184 is fabricated using a 0.5 micron gate length GaAs PHEMT process. The process features full passivation for performance and reliability.

3. For positive voltage control, external DC blocking capacitors are required on all RF ports. 4. Insertion loss can be optimized by varying the DC blocking capacitor value. For use above 2.5 GHz, M/A-COM recommends using smaller capacitor values. For example, use 5 pF for 3.2 GHz.
