Description
M/A-COM’s MASW-007921 is a broadband GaAs
pHEMT MMIC SPDT switch available in a lead-free
2 mm 8-lead PDFN package. The MASW-007921 is
ideally suited for applications where very small size
and high linearity are required.
Typical applications include WiMAX, WLAN, Mesh
networks, fixed wireless access, and other higher
power systems. This switch has a very high initial
compression point, ideal for complex modulations
such as OFDM, with large peak average power
levels.
The MASW-007921 is fabricated using a 0.5 micron
gate length GaAs pHEMT process. The process
features full passivation for performance and
reliability.
