HMC427LP3 / 427LP3E

GaAs MMIC POSITIVE CONTROL

TRANSFER SWITCH, DC* - 8 GHz

v07.0805

General Description

Features

Functional Diagram

The HMC427LP3 & HMC427LP3E are low loss

broadband positive control transfer switches in

leadless surface mount packages. Covering DC to 8

GHz, this switch offers high isolation and low insertion

loss. The switch operates using a positive control

voltage of 0/+5V and requires a  xed bias of +5V @

< 20 μA.

High Isolation: 40 ~ 45 dB thru 6 GHz

Low Insertion Loss: 1.2 dB@ 6 GHz

Non-Re ective Design

3 x 3 mm SMT Package

Electrical Speci cations, TA = +25° C, With 0/+5V Control, 50 Ohm System

Typical Applications

The HMC427LP3 / HMC427LP3E is ideal for:

• Test Instrumentation

• Fiber Optics & Broadband Telecom

• Basestation Infrastructure

• Microwave Radio & VSAT

• Military Radios, Radar, & ECM

* Blocking capacitors are required at ports RF1, 2, 3, &

4. Their value will determine the lowest transmission fre-

quency.

Evaluation PCB

The circuit board used in the  nal application should

be generated with proper RF circuit design tech-

niques. 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 eval-

uation circuit board shown above is available from

Hittite Microwave Corporation upon request.
