Description:
The MSW2T-8512-740 SMT High Power PIN Diode switch leverages a high reliability hybrid manufacturing
process which y i elds proven superior high power performance t o bot h MM IC and Glass Carri er based
technologies. The hybrid design approach permits precise PIN Diode selection to optimize RF perform ance
while maintaining competitive cost targets. The small form factor (9mm x 6m m x 2.5mm) offers effici ent
utilization of real estate while providin g world class power handling, low insertion loss, and high isolation relative
to all competing tech nol ogies.
Typical Applications:
Radar T/R Modules
Switch Bank Filters
Mil-Com Radios
The MSW2T-8512-740 High Power SP2T switch is intended for us e in high power, high reliability, m ission
