HMC194MS8 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The HMC194MS8 is a GaAs MMIC SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) switch designed by Hittite Microwave Corporation for applications requiring high isolation between RF paths. This component operates across a frequency range from DC to 3 GHz, making it suitable for various wireless communication systems.

 

Key electrical specifications include insertion loss as low as 0.7 dB and isolation up to 51 dB at 1.0 GHz. The switch supports positive voltage control (0/+3V to 0/+7V) and is compatible with CMOS and TTL logic families. It features reflective opens when in the 'OFF' state for both RF1 and RF2 paths.

 

The HMC194MS8 is packaged in an ultra-small MSOP8 surface-mount package. Its typical applications include cellular/PCS base stations, portable wireless devices, and MMDS & WirelessLAN systems. The device is optimized for medium and low power applications, providing high isolation with minimal insertion loss.
