HMC234C8 GaAs MMIC SMT HIGH ISOLATION SPDT SWITCH, DC - 8.0 GHz is a high performance GaAs MMIC SMT high isolation SPDT switch with isolation of 52 dB and insertion loss of less than 2 dB, ideal for telecom infrastructure, microwave radio and VSAT, military radios, radar and ECM, test instrumentation.
The HMC234C8 is a broadband high isolation non-reflective GaAs MESFET SPDT switch in a non-hermetic surface mount ceramic package. It covers the frequency range from DC to 8.0 GHz and features greater than 52 dB isolation up to 2 GHz and greater than 38 dB isolation up to 8.0 GHz. The device operates using complementary negative control voltage logic lines of -5/0V and requires no bias supply.
