General Description
10
The HMC536MS8G & HMC536MS8GE are DC to
6 GHz GaAs MMIC T/R switches in 8 lead MSOP8G
surface mount packages with an exposed ground
paddle. The switch is ideal for cellular/PCS/3G
basestation applications featuring low 0.5 dB inser-
tion loss and +55 dBm input IP3. Power handling is
excellent up through 6 GHz with the switch offering
a P0.1dB compression point of +29 dBm at +3 volts
control. On-chip circuitry allows positive voltage con-
trol of 0/+3 volts or 0/+5 volts at very low DC currents.
Electrical Specifications, TA = +25° C, Vctl = 0/+3 Vdc to +5 Vdc, 50 Ohm System
