Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC436MS8G is a low cost C-band DPDT
switch that operates between 4.9 and 5.9 GHz.
This switch can operate as an integrated antenna
diversity and transmit/receive switch for the
802.11a/HiperLAN and UNII radio platforms.
The design provides 20 dB of isolation between
antennas and between Tx and Rx ports. The
switch features 1 dB insertion loss and high
power handling capability. Switch state is con-
trolled using four control voltage lines toggled
between 0 and +3 to +5V.
