Description

M/A-COM’s MASWSS0151 is a GaAs MMIC SPDT

switch in a low cost, lead-free SC70 (SOT-363)

surface mount plastic package. The MASWSS0151

is ideally suited for applications that include

transmit / receive switching for Bluetooth and WLAN

equipment.

The MASWSS0151 can also be used in applications

up to 500 mW in cellular, PCS, DCS1800, GSM,

CDMA, and other analog and digital wireless

communications systems.

The MASWSS0151 is fabricated using a 0.5 micron

gate length GaAs PHEMT process. The process

features full passivation for performance and

reliability.
