Device Overview

General Description

The MSW2-1002HLGA is a reflective, single-pole double throw (SPDT) switch. The part is manufactured using a Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI) process. The switch operates from 100MHz to 20GHz with average insertion loss and isolation of 0.8 dB and 44 dB respectively and input power handling and hot switching capability of 33.5 dBm. The MSW2-1002HLGA requires positive and negative 3.3V supply inputs and is controlled via a single input pin compatible with LVTTL logic. This switch has a 50-Ohm characteristic impedance. The MSW2-1002HLGA is packaged in a compact 2.25x2.25 mm LGA for surface mount integration on circuit board-based systems.
