HMC427LP3 427LP3E / v07.0805 GaAs MMIC POSITIVE CONTROL TRANSFER SWITCH, DC* - 8 GHz Typical Applications Features The HMC427LP3 / HMC427LP3E is ideal for: High Isolation: 40 ~ 45 dB thru 6 GHz • Test Instrumentation Low Insertion Loss: 1.2 dB@ 6 GHz • Fiber Optics & Broadband Telecom Non-Refl ective Design E • Basestation Infrastructure 3 x 3 mm SMT Package • Microwave Radio & VSAT T • Military Radios, Radar, & ECM Functional Diagram General Description E 10 The HMC427LP3 & HMC427LP3E are low loss broadband positive control transfer switches in leadless surface mount packages. Covering DC to 8 L GHz, this switch offers high isolation and low insertion T loss. The switch operates using a positive control M voltage of 0/+5V and requires a fi xed bias of +5V @ O S < 20 μA. - S * Blocking capacitors are required at ports RF1, 2, 3, & E 4. Their value will determine the lowest transmission fre- H S quency. C T I W B S O Electrical Specifi cations, T = +25° C, With 0/+5V Control, 50 Ohm System A Parameter Frequency Min. Typ. Max.
