Abstract

The distributed FET switch concept is applied to the development of a wideband single-pole double-throw monolithic switch. The switch operates in the 6-19 GHz frequency band with less than 2 dB insertion loss and better than 30 dB isolation across the full band. Switching times as short as 0.2 nsec have been measured.
