Description

The HWS486 is a GaAs PHEMT MMIC SPDT

switch operating at DC-6 GHz in a miniature

ETSLP(1.5 x 1.5 mm) plastic lead (Pb) free

package. The HWS486 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 WLAN PC card and access point

applications as transmit/receive switch, antenna

diversity switch, or band-selection switch.
