Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC223MS8 is a low-cost SPDT switch in an
8-lead MSOP package for use in transmit-receive
applications.The device can control signals from 4.5
to 6 GHz and is especially suited for 5.2 GHz UNII
and 5.8 GHz ISM applications with only 1.2 dB loss.
The design provides exceptional power handling
performance; input P1dB = +33dBm at 5 Volt bias.
RF1 and RF2 are reflective shorts when “Off”. On-
chip circuitry allows single positive supply operation
at very low DC current with control inputs compat-
ible with CMOS and most TTL logic families. No DC
blocking capacitors are required on RF I/O ports.
