package.
The SW-456 is ideally suited for
applications where very low power consumption, low
insertion loss, very small size and low cost are
required. Typical applications are in dual band
systems where switching between small signal
components is required, i.e. filter banks, single-band
LNA’s, converters, etc. The SW-456 can be used in
applications up to 0.25 watts in systems such as
cellular, PCS, DCS1800, GSM, CDMA,
W-CDMA and other analog/digital wireless
communication systems.
