Abstract
Devices and systems for using a Gallium Nitride-based (GaN-based) transistor for selectively switching signals are provided. A first transmission line is configured to connect a common connection and a first connection. A first Gallium-Nitride-based (GaN-based) transistor has a first terminal coupled to the first transmission line at a first point, a second terminal coupled to a relative ground, and a third terminal configured to be coupled to a first control connection. A second GaN-based transistor has a first terminal coupled to the first transmission line at a second point, a second terminal configured to be coupled to the relative ground, and a third terminal configured to be coupled to the first control connection.
