Description
The MASW-011036 is a high power SPDT with 50 Ω
terminated RF ports. This broadband, high linearity,
SPDT switch was developed for Ka–Band
applications that require up to 13 W of power
handling while maintaining low insertion loss and
high isolation.
The SPDT 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 anode air-
bridge during handling and assembly. The die has
backside metallization to facilitate an epoxy die
attach process.

Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
Static Sensitivity
Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive
to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be
damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control
techniques should be used when handling these
HBM class 1A devices.

2. Isolation defined with 1 port in low loss state.
3. Reverse bias voltage should be determined based on working conditions. For example, -25 V @ 41.2 dBm input power. For lower power
applications, a less negative voltage can be used.
4. Forward bias voltage should be determined based on working conditions.
