Description

M/A-COM’s series of low and medium power glass

PIN diodes are specifically designed for use in

switches, duplexers, electrically tuned digital filters

AGC attenuators, TR switches and RF modulators.

They preform particularly well in distortion sensitive

environments from HF through S-Band. These

hermetically sealed axial leaded PIN diodes are

designed for use in the harshest commercial and

military applications where their inherent ruggedness

makes them an ideal choice. They may ordered

screened to meet MIL-STD 19500 requirements.

Design Recommendations

The axial leaded, glass, PIN diode series is available

in four glass package styles. The ODS 54 is the

most suitable to meet low power, low capacitance

requirements for high isolation in a series connected

switch at VHF frequencies. The ODS 4, 139 and 146

are most suited for moderate power applications

requiring low package inductance.

1.Operation of this device above any one of these

parameters may cause permanent damage.
