NJG1523KB2
SPDT SWITCH GaAs MMIC
nGENERAL
DESCRIPTION
NJG1523KB2 is a SPDT switch IC featured low insertion
loss, medium handling power and high isolation.
This device is suitable for switching of Tx/Rx signals at
sub-microwave applications.
This switch exhibits wide frequency range from 50MHz to
3.0GHz at low operating voltage of 2.5V, and is operated
up to 25dBm at 3.0V operating voltage.
The ultra small & ultra thin FLP6 package is applied.

DESCRIPTION
RF port. This port is connected with PC port by controlling 6
th
pin (V
CTL(H)
)
th
to 2.5~6.5V and 4 pin(V
CTL(L)
) to -0.2~+0.2V. An external capacitor is
required to block the DC bias voltage of internal circuit. (50~100MHz:
0.01uF, 0.1~0.5GHz: 1000pF, 0.5~2.5GHz: 56pF)
Ground terminal. Please connect this terminal with ground plane as close
as possible for excellent RF performance.
RF port. This port is connected with PC port by controlling 4
th
pin (V
CTL (H)
)
to 2.5~6.5V and 6
th
pin(V
CTL(L)
) to -0.2~+0.2V. An external capacitor is
required to block the DC bias voltage of internal circuit. (50~100MHz:
0.01uF, 0.1~0.5GHz: 1000pF, 0.5~2.5GHz: 56pF)
Control port 2. The voltage of this port controls PC to P2 state. The ‘ON’
and ‘OFF’ state is toggled by controlling voltage of this terminal such as
th
high-state (2.5~6.5V) or low-state (-0.2~+0.2V). The voltage of 6 pin
have to be set to opposite state. The bypass capacitor has to be chosen
to reduce switching time delay from 10pF~1000pF range.
Common RF port. In order to block the DC bias voltage of internal circuit,
an external capacitor is required. (50~100MHz:0.01uF, 0.1~0.5GHz:
1000pF, 0.5~2.5GHz: 56pF)
Control port 1. The voltage of this port controls PC to P2 state. The ‘ON’
and ‘OFF’ state is toggled by controlling voltage of this terminal such as
high-state (2.5~6.5V) or low-state (-0.2~+0.2V). The voltage of 4
