Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MASW-006102-13610W is determined by the following critical parameters:

• Circuit Configuration: SP6T topology must be maintained
• Frequency Range: 2 GHz to 18 GHz operational capability required
• RF Performance: Isolation of 39 dB and insertion loss of 1.9 dB at 18 GHz
• Topology: Reflective architecture
• Temperature Range: -65°C to 125°C operating specification
• Compliance: ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 classification
• Manufacturer: MACOM Technology Solutions

The MA4SW610B-1 meets all substitution criteria as an active product within the same HMIC™ series, maintaining identical electrical performance specifications while differing only in package form factor (Die versus packaged component).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MA4SW610B-1 is the direct electrical equivalent of the MASW-006102-13610W, with all RF performance parameters, frequency specifications, and compliance certifications identical. The primary distinction is product status: the MASW-006102-13610W is Obsolete, while the MA4SW610B-1 is Active and currently in production.

Selection of MA4SW610B-1 is supported by:

• Active product status ensuring continued availability and supply chain stability
• Identical ROHS3 compliance and EAR99 classification
• Identical MSL 1 rating and unlimited moisture sensitivity level
• Identical electrical performance across the specified frequency range
• Same manufacturer and HMIC™ series lineage

The substitution requires consideration of package form factor: the MASW-006102-13610W is supplied as a packaged component, while MA4SW610B-1 is supplied as a die. Integration approach must account for this packaging difference in circuit implementation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MA4SW610B-1 directly replace MASW-006102-13610W in existing designs?

A: Electrical substitution is complete. The MA4SW610B-1 maintains identical RF performance specifications, frequency range, isolation, and insertion loss. However, the die form factor requires different integration methodology than the packaged component form of the original part.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution eligibility?

A: Substitution is determined by SP6T circuit configuration, 2 GHz to 18 GHz frequency range, 39 dB isolation, 1.9 dB insertion loss at 18 GHz, reflective topology, -65°C to 125°C operating temperature, ROHS3 compliance, and EAR99 classification. All parameters match between the two parts.

Q: Why is the product status different between the two parts?

A: The MASW-006102-13610W has reached end-of-life status (Obsolete), while MA4SW610B-1 remains in active production. This reflects the manufacturer's product lifecycle management and ensures continued supply availability for the equivalent die form.

Q: Are there compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance, EAR99 export classification, MSL 1 rating, and unlimited moisture sensitivity level. Compliance certifications are fully equivalent.

Q: What inventory considerations apply?

A: The MASW-006102-13610W has 1045 pieces available as new original stock. The MA4SW610B-1 has 2075 pieces available as new original stock. Both are currently in inventory.
