10W GaAs WIDEBAND SPDT SWITCH
Package: 3mmx3mm QFN
NOT FOR NEW DESIGNS
Product Description
The FMS2020-001 is a 10-Watt, low loss, single-pole, dual-throw, Gallium Arsenide
antenna switch. The die is fabricated using the RFMD FL05 0.5μm switch process
technology, which offers leading edge performance optimized for switch applica-
tions. The FMS2020-001 is designed for use in WiMax, L-, S-, and C-band wireless
applications and WLAN access points where high linearity switching is required.

Notes:
At high powers, the dissipation in the switch can be significant and the resulting
thermal effects need to be taken in to account. The device should be mounted
with appropriate heat sinking to take this into account.
The maximum allowable junction temperature is T
JMAX
=125°C and for the thermal
calculation, the dissipation within the switch should be taken as
η
= 5.5%. This
should include the power input to the switch and anything reflected back from
an external mismatch.
The thermal resistance of the FET should be taken as R
TH
=70°C/W.
