MA4AGSW5 Overview
M/A-’s MA4AGSW5 is an Aluminum-Gallium- Arsenide anode enhanced, SP5T PIN diode switch. AlGaAs anodes, which utilize M/A-’s patent pending hetero-junction technology, produce less loss than conventional GaAs processes, by as much as 0.3 dB reduction in insertion loss at 50 GHz. These devices are fabricated on a OMCVD epitaxial wafer using a process designed for high device uniformity and extremely low parasitics.
