(SP5T) Single Pole Five Throw Pin Diode Switches
SP5T Single Pole Five Throw Pin Diode Switches
High Speed RF and Microwave Switching
SB5 SMA Series
Taylor Microwave SP5T Pin Diode Switches provide reliable RF switching between five output ports with low insertion loss and high isolation.
The SB5 Series is available in multiple frequency ranges and can be customized for specific RF power handling isolation switching speed and mechanical requirements.
Key Features
10 MHz to 32 GHz
Broad frequency coverage for RF and microwave applications.
Low Insertion Loss
Designed for efficient RF signal routing with low signal loss.
Small Size
Compact construction for RF and microwave systems.
Integral Drivers
Integral TTL and CMOS drivers with single or dual operating supplies.
Description
The SB5 Series SP5T Pin Diode Switches are designed to route an RF signal from one common input to one of five output ports.
The switches cover multiple frequency bands and use stripline or microstrip construction selected according to the required power handling isolation frequency range and custom integrated assembly requirements.
Standard units use a nominal 50 Ohm impedance and are available with integral TTL or CMOS drivers and either single or dual operating supplies.
