Description
M/A-COM’s MASWSS0100 is a GaAs PHEMT
MMIC single pole three throw (SP3T) high power
switch die. The MASWSS0100 is ideally suited for
applications where high power, low control voltage,
low insertion loss, high isolation, small size and low
cost are required.
Typical applications are for GSM, DCS and PCS
handset systems that connect separate transmit and
receive functions to a common antenna, as well as
other handset and related applications. This part
can be used in all systems operating up to 2.5 GHz
requiring high power at low control voltage.
