PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The AWS5516 is a Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT)

GaAs MMIC switch assembled in a SOT-26 plastic

package. The AWS5516 is designed for applications

that require low insertion loss, high isolation, high

linearity, and small size. The switch can be controlled

with positive, negative, or a combination of both

voltages.

Function

Description

1

RF

RF port can be used as an input or as an output.

2

GND

Ground connection. Keep as short as possible.

3

RF

RF port can be used as an input or an ouput.

4

V2

Control Voltage 2, Low 0V , High 3V to 5V

5

RF

RF common port and bias voltage for positive

control (3V to 5V).

6

V1

Control Voltage 1, Low 0V , High 3V to 5V

Notes:

1. DC blocking capacitors C1,2,3 and optional resistor Rs must be supplied externally.

2. C1,2,3 = 100 pF for operation >500MHz.

3. The use of resistor Rs to the positive voltage supply is optional. It is only required if it is necessary to

independently control the RF ports, such as selecting both ports to be OFF at the same time.
