GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADRF5044 is a general-purpose, single-pole, four-throw
(SP4T) switch manufactured using a silicon process. It comes in
a 24-terminal land grid array (LGA) package and provides high
isolation and low insertion loss from 100 MHz to 30 GHz.
This broadband switch requires dual-supply voltages, +3.3 V and
−3.3 V, a n d p rovides complementary metal-oxide semiconductor
(CMOS)/low voltage transistor-transistor logic (LVTTL) logic-
compatible control.
