Pin Diode Switches - SP16TFrom 100 MHz to 24 GHz, any optimized bandwidth is available in absorptive or reflective models. These are available in any combination between a SP9T to a SP16T. Units can be customized for your application with offerings of various isolations, switching speeds, size configurations and even matched phase and amplitude. Control options include solder pins or Multi-Pin connector. |
Frequency Ranges: From 100 MHz to 20 GHz, any optimized bandwidth is available.
TTL Compatible Logic: The control logic consists of 5 BITs, binary, TTL compatible logic with a two unit load at 0.8 mA.
High Speed Switching: Switch is measured from 50% TTL to 10% / 90% RF from any set value to any set value.
Operating Temperature Range: This model includes temperature compensation in a range from -40° to +70° C. For more severe environments, please consult the factory.
Low DC Power Consumption: Switches with TTL drivers require ±5 VDC @ +850/-200 mA.
High RF Power Handling: For power levels greater than listed, please consult the factory.
Standard Interfaces: RF port connectors are ‘SMA’ female per MIL-C-39012. DC/Logic connections are solder terminals. Please consult the factory for additional options.
Matched Phase & Amplitude: Model listed is matched port-to-port with an amplitude match of ±0.5 dB and a phase match of ±5.0 degrees.
