Sizing Up RF Switch Systems.

The article focuses on the use of radio frequency (RF)/microwave switches in microwave test systems to permit automated testing and measurement on multiple devices under test (DUTs). It states that it is significant to understand the type of multiplexer and switch options available when setting a high-frequency switching systems for test applications. A single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) switch can be applied in route signals to two various devices under test.
