Description
M/A-COM’s MASWSS0162 is a GaAs MMIC SPST
switch in a lead-free SOIC-8 lead surface mount
plastic package. The MASWSS0162 is ideally suited
for use where low power consumption is required.
Typical applications include transmit/receive switch-
ing, switch matrices and switched filter banks in sys-
tems such as radio and cellular equipment, PCM,
GPS, fiber optic modules, and other battery powered
radio equipment.
The MASWSS0162 is fabricated using a monolithic
GaAs MMIC using a mature 1 micron process. The
process features full chip passivation for increased
performance and reliability.
