General Description
The HMC233G8 is a broadband high isolation non-
reflective GaAs MESFET SPDT switch in a hermetic
surface mount package. Covering DC to 6.0 GHz, the
switch features >44 dB isolation up to 2 GHz and >31
dB isolation up to 6.0 GHz. The switch operates using
complementary negative control voltage logic lines of
-5/0V and requires no bias supply.
Electrical Specifications, T_A = +25° C, With 0/-5V Control, 50 Ohm System
