UM6000 / UM6200/UM6600
POWER PIN DIODES
KEY FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
used successfully in switches in which low
insertion loss at low bias current is required.
The “A” style package for this series is the
smallest Microsemi PIN diode package. It has
been used successfully in many microwave
applications using coaxial, microstrip, and
stripline techniques at frequencies beyond XBand. The “B” and “E” style leaded packages
offer the highest available power dissipation for a
package this small. They have been used
extensively as series switch elements in
microstrip circuits. The “C” style package
duplicates the physical outline available in
conventional ceramic-metal packages but
incorporates the many reliability advantages of
the Microsemi construction.

These series of PIN diodes are designed for
applications requiring small package size
and moderate average power handling
capability. The low capacitance of the
UM6000 and UM6600 allows them to be
used as series switching elements to 1 GHz.
The low resistance of the UM6200 is useful
in applications where forward bias current
must be minimized.
Because of its thick I-region width and long
lifetime the UM6000 and UM6600 have
been used in distortion sensitive and high
peak power applications, including receiver
protectors, TACN, and IFF equipment.
Their low capacitance allows them to be
useful as attenuator diodes at frequencies
greater than 1 GHz. The UM6200 has been
Voltage ratings to 1000V
Average power dissipation to 6 W
