Description
The AS137-12 is a FET IC SPDT switch in a SOIC-8
plastic package. This switch has been designed for use
where extremely high linearity and low insertion loss are
required. It is controlled with positive voltage, eliminating
the need for negative voltage. Some standard
implementations include antenna changeover, T/R and
diversity switching over 2 W. The AS137-12 switch can be
used in many analog and digital wireless communication
systems including cellular, GSM and DECT applications.
