(SP8T) Single Pole Eight Throw Pin Diode Switches
(SP8T) Single Pole Eight Throw Pin Diode Switches
SB8 SMA Series
SB8 SMA Series Pin Diode Switches
The SB8 Series provides single pole eight throw RF switching for microwave applications.
One common RF input can be switched to any of eight RF outputs.
The SB8 series is available in multiple frequency ranges with options for
lower insertion loss higher isolation higher power and faster switching.
Custom designs are also available.
Features
10 MHz to 32 GHz
Designed for efficient microwave signal routing
Compact microwave switch construction
TTL / CMOS drivers available
Single or dual operating supply
Description
The SBS Series of SPST to SPNT Pin Diode Switches covers the frequency range
of 0.02 to 40 GHz in multiple bands.
Stripline or microstrip construction is implemented based on power handling
isolation frequency range and custom integrated assembly requirements.
The SB8 Series provides eight switched RF outputs from a common RF input.
These solid-state switches are suitable for microwave signal routing and
switching applications.
