HMC986A

SWITCHES - CHIP Typical Applications The HMC986A is ideal for: Wideband Switching Matrices High Speed Data Infrastructure Military Comms, RADAR, and ECM Test and Measurement Equipment Jamming and EW Subsystems Functional Diagram HMC986A v01.0516 GaAs MMIC REFLECTIVE SPDT SWITCH, 0.1 - 50 GHz Features Wideband Performance: 0.1 to 50 GHz Low Insertion Loss: 2.1 dB at 40 GHz High Isolation: 34 dB at 40 GHz Fast Switching Speed: 11 ns Compact Die Size: 0.98 x 0.75 x 0.1 mm General Description The HMC986A is a wideband GaAs pHEMT MMIC Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) switch die. This tiny switch employs a reflective topology and is controlled with two complementary inputs of 0/-3V to 0/-5V. With an input signal at 40 GHz, the HMC986A exhibits 19 dB return loss, 34 dB isolation, and only 2.1 dB insertion loss. The combination of wideband performance and fast switching speed make this switch ideal for test equipment, switching matrices, and electronic warfare (EW) applica...
