Description
M/A-COM offers a comprehensive line of low
capacitance, planar and mesa, silicon PIN diode chips
which use ceramic glass and silicon nitride passivation
technology. The Silicon PIN series of devices cover a
broad spectrum of performance requirements for control
circuit applications. They are available in several choices
of I-region lengths and have been optimally designed to
minimize parametric trade offs when considering low
capacitance, low series resistance, and high breakdown
voltages. Their small size and low parasitics, make them
an ideal choice for broadband, high frequency,
micro-strip hybrid assemblies.
The attenuator line of PIN diode chips are a planar
or mesa construction and because of their thicker
I-regions and predictable R_s vs. I characteristics, they
are well suited for low distortion attenuator and switch
circuits. Incorporated in the chip’s construction is
M/A-COM’s, time proven, hard glass, CERMACHIP^® .
The hard glass passivation completely encapsulates the
entire PIN junction area resulting in a hermetically
sealed chip which has been qualified in many military
applications. These CERMACHIP^® diodes are available
in a wide variety of voltage ratings, up to 3,000 volts and
are capable of controlling kilowatts of power.
Many of M/A-COM’s silicon PIN diode chips are
also available in several different package styles.
