HMC232

v03.1203 HMC232 GaAs MMIC SPDT NON-REFLECTIVE SWITCH, DC - 15 GHz SWITCHES - CHIP 4 4-2 Typical Applications Features Broadband switch for DC - 15 GHz applications: Fiber Optics High Isolation: >50 dB @ 10 GHz Low Insertion Loss: 1.4 dB @ 6 GHz Microwave Radio Non-Reflective Design Military & Space Die Size: 2.05 x 1.04 x 0.1 mm Test Equipment VSAT OLETE Functional Diagram Direct Replacement for HMC132 General Description The HMC232 is a broadband non-reflective GaAs MESFET SPDT MMIC chip. Covering DC to 15 GHz, the switch features over 55 dB isolation at lower frequencies and over 45 dB at higher frequencies due to the implementation of on-chip via hole structures. The switch operates using two negative control voltage logic lines (A&B) of -5/0V and requires no Vee. Alternate A & B control pads are provided to ease MIC implementation. All data shown is tested with the chip in a 50 Ohm test fixture connected via 0.025 mm (1 mil) diameter wire bonds of 0.5 mm (20 mils) length. This product is a form, fit & functional replacement for the HMC132.
