GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADG936/ADG936-R are wideband analog switches that

comprise two independently selectable SPDT switches using a

CMOS process to provide high isolation and low insertion loss

to 1 GHz. The ADG936 is an absorptive/matched dual SPDT

with 50 Ω terminated shunt legs; the ADG936-R is a reflective

dual SPDT. These devices are designed such that the isolation is

high over the dc to 1 GHz frequency range. They have on-board

CMOS control logic, eliminating the need for external

controlling circuitry. The control inputs are both CMOS and

LVTTL compatible. The low power consumption of these

CMOS devices makes them ideally suited for wireless

applications and general-purpose high frequency switching.
