Description
The MGS-71008 is a single-pole, double-throw monolithic GaAs MMIC switch. The J2 and J3 of the MGS-71008 are terminated to ground by internal 50 Ω load resistors when “off” (a reflective version, the MGS-70008, which terminates the “off” port to ground, is also available). The switch is sealed in a small, plastic, surface-mount SO-8 package. Switching is actuated by a -5 V control voltage per the truth table shown on the next page. -3.3␣ V
operation is also possible with
some reduction in P1 dB and IP3.
