Description
The AS160-86 is a PHEMT GaAs IC transfer and SPDT
switch.This switch is ideal for dual band applications where
TX/RXdiversity is required.The switch has 4 control lines
that may be positive, negative or a combination of both
(differential biasing). This switch is designed for
commercial wireless applications such as GSM, DCS and
PCS systems.
