Description and Applications
M/A-COM's broad line of packaged PIN diodes
encompasses a comprehensive range of electrical
characteristics and package outlines. This diverse union
of semiconductor technology and chip packaging gives
considerable flexibility to the circuit designer. The fast
switching series of packaged PIN diodes utilize a thin
I-region and silicon oxide or glass passivated chips
which provide for low leakage currents and low insertion
loss. Using in process control monitors to regulate wafer
fabrication parameters these devices achieve consistent
performance in control circuit applications. The high
voltage product line of packaged PIN diodes employs
M/A-COM's unique CERMACHIP® passivation process
which provides for a hard glass encapsulation that
hermetically seals the active area of the chip. These
®
packaged CERMACHIP PIN diodes are ideally suited
for use in high power applications where high RF
voltages are present. The diode chips are bonded into
sealed ceramic packages that are designed for the most
stringent electrical and environmental conditions. A wide
choice of packages are available which can be mounted
into a variety of microwave and RF circuit media. The
Packaged PIN Diodes series are designed to have a
high inherent reliability and may be ordered screened to
meet many MIL-STD reliability levels.
