HMC607

GaAs MMIC HIGH ISOLATION

SPDT SWITCH, DC - 15 GHz

Features

Functional Diagram

General Description

The HMC607 is a broadband high isolation non-

reflective GaAs MESFET SPDT MMIC chip. Covering

DC to 15 GHz, the switch features >55 dB isolation at

lower frequencies and >45 dB at higher frequencies.

The switch operates using complementary negative

control voltage logic lines of -5/0V and requires no

bias supply.

High Isolation: >50 dB @ 10 GHz

Low Insertion Loss: 1.4 dB Typical @ 6.0 GHz

Non-Reflective Design

Die Size: 2.05 mm x 1.04 mm x 0.1 mm

Typical Applications

The HMC607 is ideal for:

• Telecom Infrastructure

• Microwave Radio & VSAT

• Military Radios, Radar & ECM

• Space Systems

• Test Instrumentation
