Description and Applications

MA-COM's product line of packaged PIN diodes

represents a comprehensive combination of PIN

diode electrical characteristics and package outlines.

This union of semiconductor and packaging technol-

ogy gives considerable design flexibility to the PIN

diode circuit designer. The fast switching speed PIN

diodes utilize thin I-region silicon dioxide passivated

chips that incorporate careful control of semiconduc-

tor processing. These diodes achieve consistent

performance in control circuit applications. The

packaged CERMACHIP PIN diodes employ MA-

COM's unique hard glass passivated, hermetically

sealed PIN diode chip. The packaged CERMACHIP

PIN diodes are designed for use in high power and

high RF voltage applications. The PIN diode chips

are bonded into hermetically sealed ceramic or glass

packages that are designed for high volume, close

tolerance utilization. Packages are available which

are suitable for mounting in a variety of microwave

and RF circuit media. The packaged silicon PIN di-

ode series has high inherent reliability and is capa-

ble of meeting stringent environmental tests. These

diodes may be ordered with testing to selected reli-

ability levels.
