The MASW-011173-DIE is a high power SP2T switch with integrated bias networks. This broadband, reflective switch was developed for 20 - 55 GHz applications that require up to 30 dBm (1 W) power handling while maintaining low insertion loss, high isolation, and fast switching speed. These switches are suitable for multiple applications.
This SP2T MMIC utilizes MACOM's proven AlGaAs PIN diode technology. The switch is fully passivated with silicon nitride and has an added polymer layer for scratch protection. The protective coating prevents damage to the junction and the air-bridges during handling and assembly. The die has backside metallization designed to facilitate an epoxy die attach process.
