The SPDT switch maintains a high isolation greater than 63-dB up to 110-MHz and 45-dB up to 900-MHz while maintaining low insertion loss. When the switch is un-powered, it automatically enables a default-on state.

Tested in a 75-ohm system, the M/A-COM MASWSS0201 achieves less than 0.9-dB of insertion loss and 65-dB of isolation at 100-MHz. The switch is designed to have a P1dB of 21-dBm at 100-MHz, which increases to 28-dBm at 900-MHz. Greater than 40-dB isolation is maintained up to 2.5-GHz with a corresponding insertion loss less than 1.5-dB. It is configurable to have either absorptive (primary) or reflective RF1, RF2 port matches to meet the end-user's system requirements.

The M/A-COM MASWSS0201 comes in lead-free surface mount 3-mm PQFN packaging. The switch is fabricated on a low-cost 0.5-micron gate-length GaAs process.
