Description

The HWS434 is a GaAs MMIC SPDT terminated

(non-reflective) switch in a low cost SOP-8 plastic

lead (Pb) free package. The HWS434 features low

insertion loss and high isolation with very low DC

power consumption. Typical applications include

CATV and basestation systems for either SPDT or

SPST functions.
