PIN Diode Switch

CAES PIN Diode Switches are available as absorptive or reflective SP1T, SP2T, SP3T, SP4T, SP5T and Transfer switch, in a wide variety of frequency bands from 10MHz to 18GHz. Our standard PIN diode switches are optimized for low insertion loss and VSWR, high isolation and fast switching speed and incorporate TTL - compatible drivers. All standard switches are available with hermetic seal and high - reliability screening for military and space - qualified applications.
