The Revolutionary Ideal Switch™ is here from Menlo Micro!
We’re applying our expertise to transform industries and to redefine the electronic switch.
Menlo Micro’s new MM5120 SP4T DC-to-18 GHz Ideal Switch™ is the industry’s highest performance for RF switching applications, and significantly reduces cost and complexity of high power RF designs.
Based on Menlo Micro’s innovative Ideal Switch™ technology, the MM5120 switch has industry-leading RF and thermal performance, significantly outperforming conventional electromechanical (EM) relays and solid-state switches.
Key Features of the MM5120:
- Its design greatly enhances integrating the switch into a host of RF, microwave and high speed applications, ranging from filters and switch matrices, to high-speed load boards and beam forming antennas
- The MM5120 switch has an internal charge pump and driver circuit, which eliminates the need for high voltage routing on a customer’s board
- Flexible +3.3 Volt or +5 Volt biasing, with options for both SPI bus and GPIO digital interfaces
- Excellent RF performance: <0.6 dB insertion loss at 12 GHz
- Ultra-high reliability of >3B switching operations
- Max Frequency: 18 GHz
- Isolation: >17 dB @ 18 GHz
- Power Handling: 25 W (CW), >150 W (Pulsed)
- Linearity (IP3): >90 dBm
- Power Consumption: <5 mW
- Switching Speed: <10 µs
The MM5120 helps customers achieve 99% reductions in size, weight, power loss and cost while providing more than three billion switching operations with no degradation in performance. No other conventional SP4T switch on the market can match the combined RF performance and lifetime reliability.
