MSOP-8
AS106-59
Description
The AS106-59 is a GaAs IC FET SPDT in a miniature
MSOP-8 surface mount plastic package. It is ideal for
commercial applications where low power consumption,
low insertion loss, high linearity and extremely small
package size are required. Applications include general
purpose T/R switching for wireless communication
systems.
