Description
M/A-COM’s SW-313-PIN is a GaAs FET SPDT ab-
sorptive switch with integral silicon ASIC driver.
Packaged in a 16-lead ceramic surface mount pack-
age, this device offers excellent performance and
repeatability from DC to 3 GHz while maintaining low
power consumption. The SW-313-PIN is ideally
suited for use where fast speed, low power con-
sumption and broadband applications are required.
MIL-STD-883 screening available.

3. Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may cause
permanent damage to this device.
4. M/A-COM does not recommend sustained operation near
these survivability limits.
5. Standard CMOS TTL interface, latch-up will occur if logic
signal is applied prior to power supply.
Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
Static Sensitivity
Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive
to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be
damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control
techniques should be used when handling these
devices.
