M/A-COM Technology Solutions has released two high-power PIN diode switches with very high linearity in a common anode configuration, operating over the 50 MHz to 1 GHz frequency range. The MASW-011040 and MASW-011041 are designed for military and civilian customers who require high CW and pulsed power operation for land mobile radio applications.
These devices are capable of handling 200 Watts CW incident power at a base plate temperature of 85°C, delivered in a single 9 mm HQFN 20-lead plastic package. They deliver isolation above 40 dB at 1 GHz with insertion loss of <0,5 dB, and are compatible with MACOM’s MADR-010574 PIN diode driver.
