HMC427ALP3E v02.1016 GaAs MMIC POSITIVE CONTROL TRANSFER SWITCH, DC* - 8GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC427ALP3E is ideal for: High Isolation: 40 ~ 45 dB thru 6 GHz Low Insertion Loss: 1.5 dB at 6 GHz Test Instrumentation Fiber Optics & Broadband Telecom Non-Reflective Design Basestation Infrastructure 3x3mm SMT Package Microwave Radio & VSAT Military Radios, Radar, & ECM Functional Diagram General Description The HMC427ALP3E is a low loss broadband positive control transfer switch in leadless surface mount package. Covering DC to 8 GHz, this switch offers high isolation and low insertion loss. The switch operates using a positive control voltage of 0/+5V and requires a fixed bias of +5V at < 20 A. * Blocking capacitors are required at ports RF1, 2, 3, & 4. Their value will determine the lowest transmission frequency. Electrical Specifications, T = +25 C, VDD = 5V , With 0/+5V Control, 50 Ohm System A Parameter Frequency Min. Typ. Max.
