Abstract
This paper presents a GaAs MMIC SPDT switch for 60 GHz applications. Insertion loss and isolation of the switch was measured to be 1 dB and 20 dB, respectively. The circuit uses only two passive HEMT devices in shunt configuration making it very compact, reciprocal and with a high power performance
