Overview
This part of IEC 60747 describes new measuring methods, terminology and letter symbols, as well as essential ratings and characteristics for integrated circuit microwave switches. There are many combinations for RF ports in switches, such as SPST (Single Pole Single Throw), SPDT (Single Pole Double Throw), SP3T (Single Pole Triple Throw), DPDT (Double Pole Double Throw), etcetera. Switches described in this standard are based on SPDT. However, this standard is applicable to the other types of switches. The responsible Committee is Subcommittee UK 631.1 "Einzel-Halbleiterbauelemente" ("Discrete semiconductor devices") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
