Description
The HWS531 is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC SPDT
switch with 50
Ω
termination operating at 0.5 -6.0
GHz in a low cost miniature USON6L (1.5x1.5x0.4
mm) plastic lead (Pb) free package. The HWS531
features low insertion loss and high isolation with
very low DC power consumption. This switch can
be used in WiMAX or IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n WLAN
PC card and access point applications as
transmit/receive switch, antenna diversity switch, or
band-selection switch.
