P-I-N Diode Switches Project
Abstract
The design of PIN switches in microwaves, the action of the PIN diode as a switch in the on and off states and several types of switches are described. Two SPDT (single pole double throw) switches prototypes were designed. The first, at 400 MHz, presents 40 dB isolation and 0.75 db insertion. The second, at 2.2 GHz, has 20 dB isolation and insertion low better than 0.7 dB.
