11. For use at low voltage, M/A-COM recommends connecting

pin 2 to a voltage equal to the most positive control voltage.

12. Negative control voltage may be used. The ‘1’ in the table

would be the most positive (0 V) and the ‘0’ would be the

most negative (-3 V for example).

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.
