MM4250 RF Switch by Menlo Micro
The MM4250 from Menlo Micro is an SP6T RF Switch Module that operates from DC to 10 GHz and is designed for cryogenic applications. It provides 40 dB of isolation and has an insertion loss of 4 dB with a typical switching time of 25 ms. This cryogenic switch is based on Menlo Micro’s Ideal Switch® technology and uses electrostatic actuation to enable reliable, low-power operation at ultra-low temperatures while significantly reducing Joule heating. It consumes less than 1 mW of power and includes built-in open, short, and load (OSL) calibration standards to preserve RF channels for measurements.
The MM4250 can handle a CW input power of up to 5 W and has a return loss of 7 dB at the RF common port. It supports up to 1 × 10? switching cycles and offers tight channel-to-channel delay matching of 2 ps. It requires a DC supply of 89 V and consumes 2 nA of current. This switch is available in a brass module measuring 4.5 x 4.5 x 3.6 cm and has SMA connectors for RF interfacing and Micro-D female connectors for control. It is ideal for quantum computing and cryogenic device characterization applications.
