HMC595A / 595AE
v01.0515
GaAs MMIC 3 WATT T/R SWITCH
DC - 3 GHz
Typical Application Circuit
Notes:
1. Set logic gate and switch Vdd = +3V to +5V and use HCT
series logic to provide a TTL driver interface.
2. Control inputs A/B can be driven directly with CMOS logic (HC)
with Vdd of +3 to +8 Volts applied to the CMOS logic gates.
3. DC Blocking capacitors are required for each RF port as shown.
Capacitor value determines lowest frequency of operation.
4. Highest RF signal power capability is achieved with V set to
+10V. The switch will operate properly (but at lower RF power
capability) at bias voltages down to +3V.

The circuit board used in the application should be
generated with proper RF circuit design techniques.
Signal lines at the RF port should have 50 Ohm
impedance and the package ground leads and
package bottom should be connected directly to the
ground plane similar to that shown above. The eval-
uation circuit board shown above is available from
Analog Devices upon request.
