Installation in Microstrip
UM9606 is designed to be affixed to the ground plane surface
of a microstrip board. The UM9603, UM9604, UM9607, and
UM9608 were designed to be affixed to a backing plate as
shown. It was experimentally determined that at frequencies
greater than 2 GHz the anode of the diode should be
approximately 0.010” (.254mm) above the top surface of the
microstrip for lowest insertion loss.

diode is a quarter-wave antenna switch covering the frequency
of 800-900 MHz. The circuit design for this switch is shown
and was constructed using 0.025” (0.645mm) alumina
microstrip.

mounted diode. The UM9601 was selected for shunt mounted
device (SPST performance at 1 GHz: 0.2dB insertion loss and
25dB isolation) and because it is the lowest cost diode in the
UM9601-UM9608 series. A UM9401 axial lead diode was
chosen for the series mounted device.
and in the following table. It should be noted that the loss
values are actual measured numbers including losses due to the
capacitors, bias networks, connectors, as well as the board. In a
typical radio application where the antenna switch circuit board
is integrated in the same microstrip board that contains
transmitter and receiver elements the connector loss is
eliminated. This will result in lower overall insertion loss values
than indicated here.
