The ADGM1004 from Analog Devices is a wideband, SP4T MEMS switch with integrated driver that operates from 0 Hz/DC to 13 GHz. This RF MEMS based switch is ideal for relay replacements, automatic test equipment and RF test instrumentation. This switch has an ESD Rating of 2.5kV HBM and hermetically sealed switch contacts. It has a switching time of 30 microseconds and an actuation lifetime of over 1 billion cycles. The switch has a high linearity with an insertion loss of 0.45 dB and isolation of 24 dB at 2.5 GHz. It can handle an input power of up to 36 dBm. An integrated control chip generates the high voltage necessary to electrostatically actuate the switch via a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS)-/low voltage transistor-transistor logic (LVTTL)-compatible parallel interface. All four switches are independently controllable. The ADGM1004 is available in a 24-lead, 5 mm x 4 mm x 1.45 mm lead frame chip-scale package (LFCSP).
