The HMC174MS8 is a low-cost SPDT switch in
an 8-lead MSOP package for use in transmitreceive applications which require very low distortion at high signal power levels. The device
can control signals from DC to 3.0 GHz and is
especially suited for 900 MHz, 1.8 - 2.2 GHz, and
2.4 GHz ISM applications with only 0.5 dB loss.
The design provides exceptional intermodulation
performance; providing a +60 dBm third order
intercept at 8 Volt bias. RF1 and RF2 are refl ective shorts when “OFF”. On-chip circuitry allows
single positive supply operation at very low DC
current with control inputs compatible with CMOS
and most TTL logic families.

Notes:
1. Set logic gate and switch Vdd = +3V to +5V and use HCT series logic to provide a TTL driver interface.
2. Control inputs A/B can be driven directly with CMOS logic (HC) with Vdd of 3 to 8 Volts applied to the CMOS
SWITCHES - SMT
logic gates and to pin 4 of the RF switch.
3. DC Blocking capacitors are required for each RF port as shown. Capacitor value determines
lowest frequency of operation.
4. Highest RF signal power capability is achieved with V set to +10V. The switch will operate properly (but at lower
RF power capability) at bias voltages down to +3V.

The circuit board used in the fi nal application should
be generated with proper RF circuit design techniques. Signal lines at the RF port should have 50
ohm impedance and the package ground leads and
package bottom should be connected directly to the
ground plane similar to that shown above. The evaluation circuit board shown above is available from Hittite Microwave Corporation upon request.
