MASWSS0176
GaAs
MACOM’s MASWSS0176 is a GaAs pHEMT MMIC single pole, double throw (SPDT) switch in a low cost, lead-free SOT-26 surface mount plastic package. The MASWSS0176 is ideally suited for applications where small size and low cost are required. Typical applications are dual band systems which require switching between small signal components such as filter banks, single-band LNAs, converters, etc. This part can be used for low power, low loss requirements in all systems operating up to 3 GHz, including PCS, GSM, DCS, Satellite Radio, Blue Tooth, and other receive chain applications. The MASWSS0176 is fabricated using a 0.5 micron gate length GaAs PHEMT process. The process features full passivation for performance and reliability.
