AMMC-2008-W10 RF Switch SPDT 50GHz Module Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The AMMC-2008-W10 is an RF Switch IC with SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw) topology designed for radar applications operating up to 50GHz. Manufactured by Broadcom Limited, this component is classified as obsolete product status. Due to its obsolescence, identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain system functionality and ensure continued availability for new designs or replacement applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the AMMC-2008-W10 is determined by the following critical parameters:

Circuit configuration must remain SPDT to maintain functional equivalence. Frequency range capability must support the operating band; the AMMC-2008-W10 operates from 0Hz to 50GHz. Impedance matching at 50Ohm is required for RF system compatibility. Isolation and insertion loss characteristics define signal integrity performance. The 3V supply voltage requirement must be met or accommodated through design modification.

Two substitute parts are identified:

MA4AGSW2 (MACOM Technology Solutions) operates across 50MHz to 50GHz with superior isolation (33dB) and lower insertion loss (0.3dB). This part is active product status and supplied as a die package.

MASW-011107-DIE (MACOM Technology Solutions) operates from 0Hz to 26.5GHz with the highest isolation (41dB) and moderate insertion loss (1.5dB). This part is active product status, maintains 50Ohm impedance, and is supplied as a die package with tray packaging.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts are manufactured by MACOM Technology Solutions and maintain active product status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain stability compared to the obsolete AMMC-2008-W10.

MA4AGSW2 is recommended for applications requiring full 50GHz frequency coverage. This part provides superior isolation (33dB) and significantly lower insertion loss (0.3dB) compared to the original part. Both parts are ROHS3 compliant and carry EAR99 ECCN classification.

MASW-011107-DIE is recommended for applications operating below 26.5GHz where maximum isolation (41dB) and linearity performance (P1dB 27dBm, IIP3 45dBm) are critical. This part maintains 50Ohm impedance matching and is supplied in tray packaging.

Both substitute parts are supplied as die packages rather than modules, requiring integration into a carrier or hybrid assembly. Both maintain MSL 1 moisture sensitivity level and REACH unaffected status.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MA4AGSW2 directly replace AMMC-2008-W10 in existing designs?

A: MA4AGSW2 maintains SPDT circuit configuration and 50GHz frequency capability. However, it is supplied as a die package rather than a module, requiring redesign of the carrier assembly. Impedance specification is not provided for MA4AGSW2, requiring verification against your 50Ohm system requirement.

Q: What is the frequency limitation of MASW-011107-DIE?

A: MASW-011107-DIE operates from 0Hz to 26.5GHz. Applications requiring operation above 26.5GHz must use MA4AGSW2, which supports the full 50GHz range.

Q: Why are both substitutes supplied as die packages?

A: Die packages require integration into a carrier assembly or hybrid circuit. This differs from the module package of AMMC-2008-W10, which includes integrated packaging. Design modification is necessary to accommodate die-level integration.

Q: Are the substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, both MA4AGSW2 and MASW-011107-DIE are ROHS3 compliant. The original AMMC-2008-W10 does not specify RoHS status.

Q: What are the supply voltage requirements for the substitute parts?

A: Voltage supply specifications are not provided for either substitute part. Confirm voltage compatibility with your application requirements before implementation.

Q: How do isolation and insertion loss compare across all three parts?

A: MASW-011107-DIE provides the highest isolation at 41dB with 1.5dB insertion loss. MA4AGSW2 provides 33dB isolation with 0.3dB insertion loss. The original AMMC-2008-W10 provides 28dB isolation with 2dB insertion loss. Selection depends on your system's signal integrity requirements.
