Description
The MADR-009150 switch driver is designed to work
with MACOM’s high power and high voltage PIN
diode switches. This driver has complementary
outputs which can provide up to 200 mA bias current
to a SPDT PIN diode switch. The back bias voltage
can be selected to be any voltage between 20 V to
50 V. This switch driver can be easily controlled by
standard 3.3 V TTL logic. With low quiescent
current, this driver has a typical delay of <200 ns
when driving 100 pF capacitive load.
This driver is packaged in a lead free 3 mm 16-lead
PQFN package and is available in tape and reel
packaging for high volume applications.

2. Pin 1 and Pin 4 (N/C) can be grounded if desired.
3. Pins 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 14 and 15 (N/C) should be isolated on the
PCB to prevent voltage difference between adjacent pins from
exceeding IPC 2221 standard. For VDD peak voltage less than
30 V, these pins can be grounded if desired.
4. The exposed pad centered on the package bottom must be
connected to the RF, DC and thermal ground.

Application Circuit: Driving PIN Diode Switch MASW-00093617,18
17. This application circuit is configured to bias the series diodes of the MASW-000936 switch with 100 mA current. Shunt diode bias current
is depending on the value of VDD. With VDD of 40 V, the shunt diode current is around 38 mA.
18. This driver can also be used to drive a series/shunt, series/shunt, SP2T switch. RX shunt diode bias should be connected to the TX series
diode bias as shown in the schematic above. TX shunt diode bias should be connected to the RX series diode bias. To the driver, the
sourcing current is the shunt diode forward bias current. The sinking current is the sum of the shunt diode bias current and the series
diode bias current.
