Monolithic GaAs pin diode single pole double throw (SPDT) switches based on the fabrication technology of IMECAS are designed,fabricated,and tested. These SPDT switches achieve an insertion loss of 1.5dB,isolation o...
GaAs PIN diodes optimized for X-band low loss and high isolation switch application are presented. The impact of diode physical characteristics and electrical parameters on switch performance is discussed. A new struc...
A monolithic single pole single throw (SPST) switch is developed with GaAs PIN diode technology from IMECAS. A novel small signal model of a GaAs PIN diode is developed for circuit simulation. The switch features an...
A novel equivalent circuit model for a GaAs PIN diode is presented based on physical analysis. The diode is divided into three parts: the p^+ n^- junction, the i-layer, and the n^- n^+ junction, which are modeled s...
