          Application 08/567,128                                                      

          Representative claim 2 is reproduced as follows:                            
               2.  A high frequency switch having first to fourth ports               
          and enabling connection of each of the first and second ports to            
          either of the third and fourth ports, comprising:                           
               a first diode coupled between the first and third ports;               
               a second diode coupled between the first and fourth                    
          ports;                                                                      
               the first and second diodes each having first and second               
          polarity terminals, the first and second diodes being directly              
          connected to each other at a first common connection, the first             
          common connection being coupled to the first port whereby the               
          first and second diodes are connected so that the same polarity             
          terminal of each of the first and second diodes is coupled to the           
          first port;                                                                 
               a first coupling capacitor connected between said first                
          port and said first common connection; a second coupling                    
          capacitor connected between said third port and said first diode            
          and a third coupling capacitor connected between said fourth port           
          and said second diode;                                                      
               and further comprising:                                                
               a third diode coupled between the second and third ports;              
               a fourth diode coupled between the second and fourth                   
          ports;                                                                      
               the third and fourth diodes each having first and second               
          polarity terminals, the third and fourth diodes being directly              
          connected to each other at a second common connection, the second           
          common connection being connected to the second port whereby the            
          third and fourth diodes are connected so that the same polarity             
          terminal of each of the third and fourth diodes, which is the               
          same polarity terminal as the terminals of the first and second             
          diodes connected to the first port, is connected to the second              
          port, and                                                                   

                                          2
