Description

M/A-COM’s SW-394 is a GaAs monolithic SPDT terminated

switch in a low cost SOIC 8-lead plastic package. The SW-394

is ideally suited for use where low power consumption and high

isolation are required.

Typical applications include transmit/

receive switching, switch matrices and switched filter banks in

systems such as radio and cellular equipment.

The SW-394 is fabricated using a mature 1-micron gate length

GaAs MESFET process.

The process features full chip

passivation for increased performance and reliability.
