Insertion Loss: 2 dB Typical @ 6 GHz
Non-Reflective Input/Output
Hermetic Surface Mount Package
General Description
The HMC231G7 is a broadband high isolation non-
reflective GaAs MESFET SPST switch in a hermetic
surface mount package. Covering DC to 6 GHz, the
switch features >55 dB isolation up to 2 GHz and
>42 dB isolation up to 6 GHz. The switch operates
using complementary negative control voltage logic
lines of -5/0V and requires no bias supply. When the
“OFF” state is selected, both RF1 and RF2 ports are
terminated in 50 Ohms.
