GaAs IC High Isolation Positive Control
SPDT Switch DC–3.0 GHz
Features
■ Positive Voltage Control (0/+3, +5 V)
■ High Isolation (50 dB @ 0.9, 1.9 GHz)
■ Low DC Power Consumption
■ Ideal for GSM, PCS, 3G and ISM 2.4 GHz
Applications
■ Miniature Low Cost MSOP-10
Plastic Package
MSOP-10
AS177-86
Description
The AS177-86 is a GaAs FET IC SPDT switch packaged
in a MSOP-10 plastic package for low cost, high isolation
commercial applications. Ideal building block for base
station dual band applications where synthesizer isolation
is critical. Use in conjunction with the AS165-59 SPST
switch to meet GSM synthesizer isolation requirements.
