MBDXX57-X Datasheet, PDF (1/9 Pages) M/A-COM Technology Solutions, Inc. – Zero Bias Operation
MBDxx57-x Series
Planar Back (Tunnel) Diodes
Features
 Zero Bias Operation
 Low Video Impedance
 Excellent Temperature Stability
 Screening per MIL-PRF-19500 and MIL-PRF-
35834 available
 RoHS* Compliant
Description
The MBD series of back (tunnel) diodes are
fabricated on germanium substrates using
passivated, planar construction and gold
metallization for reliable operation up to +110°C.
Unlike the standard tunnel diode IP is minimized for
detector operation and offered in five nominal values
with varying degrees of sensitivity and video
impedance. The back detector is generally operated
with zero bias and is known for its excellent
temperature stability and fast video rise times
