DESCRIPTION
The AWS5506 is a Single Pole Double Throw GaAs
MMIC switch assembled in a SOT-6 plastic package.
The AWS5506 is designed for analog and digital
application that require for insertion loss, small size,
and low cost. State selection is achieved with a
complimentary positive voltage (requires positive bias
Vs, and blocking caps) or negative voltage (no Vs or
blocking caps required).
