Low and -5 to -10 V for V
IN
High, and 50 ohm impedance at all RF
ports, unless otherwise specified.
8. High power (greater than 1W) handling specifications apply to cold switching only. For input powers under 1W hot switching can be used.
Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
Static Sensitivity
Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive
to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be
damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control
techniques should be used when handling these
devices.
