SP8T Pin Diode Switches
Absorptive and Reflective
Pulsar Microwave manufactures 8-way absorptive and reflective RF switches in single-pole 8-throw configuration. They fulfill broadband and narrowband requirements from 40 MHz to 12 GHz and handle 200 milliwatts input power. The SP8T switches have an isolation of 60 dB and switching time of 100 ns. Most models specify 1.6:1 or better VSWR at all ports. The SP8T switches operate on a power supply of +/- 5VDC and switching control is 0-5 TTL logic. The unit comes standard with SMA female connectors. Options for control are line drivers and decoders.
