AMMC-2008
DC – 50 GHz SPDT Switch
Data Sheet
Description
Avago’s AMMC-2008 is a monolithic PHEMT SPDT switch
with low insertion loss and high isolation from DC to 50
GHz. This MMIC is designed for general-purpose applica-
tions. For improved reliability and moisture protection,
the die is passivated at the active areas. One series and
two shunt PHEMTs per throw provide 2.0 dB insertion loss
and 28 dB isolation at 40 GHz.
Features
• Wide frequency range: DC – 50 GHz
• Single pole double throw switch
• Low insertion loss: 2.3 dB (max.) at 40 GHz
