MASWSS0017

The M/A-COM MASWSS0017 is a GaAs monolithic switch in a low cost, FQFP-N, surface mount plastic package. The MASWSS0017 is ideally suited for applications where very low power consumption, high power handling, and low cost are required. The MASWSS0017 includes an integrated decoder. The switch offers GSM power handling with below +2.5 V control voltage. The supply voltage VDD should be connected to the highest available voltage.

The  ASWSS0017 is fabricated using a new 0.5- micron gate length GaAs pHEMT process. The process features full chip passivation for increased performance and reliability. This switch is designed for Dual Mode WCDMA, Triple band GSM/DCS/PCS handsets, where the phone needs to be able to simultaneously receive a WCDMA and GSM signal.
