Description

M/A-COM’s MASWSS0166 is a GaAs monolithic

switch in a lead-free SOT-363 surface mount plastic

package. The MASWSS0166 is ideally suited for

applications where very low power consumption, low

insertion loss, very small size and low cost are re-

quired.

Typical applications are dual band systems that re-

quire switching between small signal components

such as filter banks, single band LNA’s and convert-

ers. The MASWSS0166 can be used in applications

up to 0.25 Watts in systems such as cellular, PCS,

DCS1800, GSM, CDMA, W-CDMA and other ana-

log/digital wireless communications systems.

The MASWSS0166 is fabricated using a mature 0.5

micron GaAs PHEMT process. The process fea-

tures full passivation for increased performance and

reliability.

Handling Procedures

Please observe the following precautions to avoid

damage:

Static Sensitivity

Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive

to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be dam-

aged by static electricity. Proper ESD control tech-

niques should be used when handling these de-

vices.
