4. Insertion Loss can be optimized by varying the DC Blocking Capacitor value, i.e. 1000 pF for 100 MHz - 1.0 GHz, 27 pF for 0.5 - 3.0 GHz.

5. Isolation of two paths on either side of the selected path.

Handling Procedures

Please observe the following precautions to avoid

damage:

Static Sensitivity

Gallium Arsenide Integrated Circuits are sensitive

to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be

damaged by static electricity. Proper ESD control

techniques should be used when handling these

devices.
