Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC226 & HMC226E are low-cost SPDT swit-
ches in 6-lead SOT26 packages for use in transmit-
receive applications which require very low distortion
at high signal power levels. The device can control
signals from DC to 2.0 GHz and is especially suited
for 450 MHz, 900 MHz, and 1.8 - 2 GHz applications
with 0.5 to 0.8 dB loss. The design provides excep-
tional P1dB and intermodulation performance; a
+35 dBm 1dB compression point and +55 dBm
third order intercept at +3 volt bias. RF1 and RF2
are reflective opens when “Off”. On-chip circuitry
allows single positive supply operation at very low DC
current with control inputs compatible with CMOS
and most TTL logic families.
