1. Typical switching speed is measured from (10% to 90% and 90% to 10% of detected RF voltage), driven by TTL compatible drivers. In the

modulating state, (the switching port is modulating, all other ports are in steady state isolation.) The switching speed is measured using an

state current, is typically 10:1.

2. Maximum reverse leakage current in either the shunt or series PIN diodes shall be 10 µA maximum at -50 volts.
