The MM5230 has been engineered for high-power applications, supporting up to 25 watts continuous and 150 watts pulsed power. At the same time, its compact, 2.5 mm x 2.5 mm size means that it can fit easily into a wide range of systems without taking up valuable board space.
The switch operates seamlessly from DC to 18GHz, and with its versatile Super-Port mode, extends to 26 GHz, making it suitable for a wide variety of end applications. The advanced contact design and materials, inherent in its Ideal Switch technology, typically enable over 50 billion switching cycles supporting systems that need to operate without fail.
The MM5230 offers a range of benefits, including:
Ultra-Low Insertion Loss: With an on-state insertion loss of just 0.3 dB at 6 GHz, the MM5230 minimises signal degradation, ensuring almost no loss in signal quality and making it ideal for maintaining high performance in sensitive systems, low-loss switch matrices, switched filter banks, and tunable filters.
Enhanced Linearity: With a typical IIP3 of 95 dBm, the MM5230 offers high linearity, keeping signals clear and undistorted, thus ensuring smooth communication or data transfer.
Super-Port Mode for Extended Bandwidth: The MM5230’s Super-Port mode extends its frequency range from 18 to 26 GHz. In this mode, the switch offers improved RF isolation and better return loss, which results in even higher-quality performance, especially when cascading switches.
