- Abstract
The article discusses the characteristics of radio frequency and microwave switches that are evaluated on the basis of insertion loss, return loss and isolation make up. It reveals that the return loss is associated with the magnitude of voltage reflection coefficient whereas high insertion loss is one of the major shortcomings of field-effect transistor switches. It mentions that some RF/microwave switches can be programmed to terminate OFF inputs to a multiplexer.
