Typical applications

The HMC253AQS24 / HMC253AQS24E is ideal for

DC - 2.5 GHz applications:

• CATV/DBS

• CDMA

• Cellular/PCS

The HMC253AQS24 & HMC253AQS24E are low-

cost non-reflective SP8T switches in 24-lead QSOP

packages featuring wideband operation from DC to 2.5

GHz. The switch offers a single positive bias and true

TTL/CMOS compatibility. A 3:8 decoder is integrated

on the switch requiring only 3 control lines and a

positive bias to select each path. The HMC253AQS24

& HMC253AQS24E SP8T will replace multiple

configurations of SP4T and SPDT MMIC switches.
