MASW-001100-1190
Description
The MASW-001100-1190, MASW-002100-1191 and
MASW-003100-1192 are broadband monolithic
switches using series and shunt connected silicon
PIN diodes. They are designed for use as 2W, high
performance switches in applications up to 26.5GHz.
They provide performance levels superior to those
realized by hybrid MIC designs incorporating
beamlead and PIN chip diodes that require chip and
wire assembly.
These switches are fabricated using M/A-COM’s
patented HMIC
TM
(Heterolithic Microwave Integrated
Circuit) process, US Patent 5,268,310. This process
allows the incorporation of silicon pedestals that
form series and shunt diodes or vias by imbedding
them in low loss, low dispersion glass. By using
small spacing between elements, this combination of
silicon and glass gives HMIC devices low loss and
high isolation performance through low
millimeter frequencies.
Large bond pads facilitate the use of low inductance
ribbon leads, while gold backside metallization
allows for manual or automatic chip bonding via
80/20, AuSn solder or conductive Ag epoxy.

HMIC™ Silicon PIN Diode Switches
Operation of the MASW Series Switches
Operation of the MASW series of PIN switches is achieved
by simultaneous application of negative DC current to the
low loss switching arm J1, J2, or J3, and positive DC
current to the remaining switching arms as shown in the
bias connection circuits. DC return is achieved via J1. The
control currents should be supplied by constant current
sources. The voltages at these points will not exceed
+1.5 volts (1.2V typical) at currents up to +20mA. In the low
loss state, the series diode must be forward biased and the
shunt diode reverse biased. In the isolated arm, the shunt
diode is forward biased and the series diode is reverse
biased.

Handling Considerations
Cleanliness:
These chips should be handled in a clean
environment.
Electro-Static Sensitivity:
The MASW series PIN switches
are ESD, Class 1A sensitive (HBM). The proper ESD
handling procedures should be used.
