Functional Diagram
General Description
The HMC194MS8 & HMC194MS8E are low-cost
SPDT switches in 8-lead MSOP packages for use in
applications which require high isolation between two
RF paths. The devices can control signals from DC to
3 GHz and have been optimized to provide extremely
high isolation with minimal insertion loss in medium
and low power applications. On chip circuitry allows
positive voltage control operation at very low DC cur-
rents with control inputs compatible with CMOS and
most TTL logic families. RF1 and RF2 are reflective
opens when “OFF”.

Notes:
1. Set logic gate and switch Vdd = +3V to +5V and use HCT series logic to provide a TTL driver interface.
2. Control inputs A/B can be driven directly with CMOS logic (HC) with Vdd of 3 to 7 Volts applied to the CMOS logic gates.
3. DC Blocking capacitors are required for each RF port as shown. Capacitor value determines lowest frequency of operation.
4. Highest RF signal power capability is achieved with Control set to 0/+7V.

107821 Evaluation PCB
The circuit board used in the final application
should be generated with proper RF circuit design
techniques. Signal lines at the RF port should
have 50 ohm impedance and the package ground
leads should be connected directly to the ground
plane similar to that shown above. The evalua-
tion circuit board shown above is available from
Hittite Microwave Corporation upon request.
