SILICON PIN DIODES

Plastic package Surface Mount attenuating silicon PIN diodes
PLASTIC PACKAGE SURFACE MOUNT ATTENUATING

SILICON PIN DIODES
Description
TEMEX uses its proprietary technology to manufacture its Silicon PIN diodes in plastic package.
This product family is designed for a low cost, medium to high volume market that may be supplied
in tape and reel for automated pick and place assembly on surface mount circuit boards.
The use of this technology eliminates wire bonding on to the chips.
Applications
Typical applications include variable RF attenuators and AGC (Automatic Gain Control) circuits,
from MHz to several GHz.
The attenuating Pin diode uses properties of variation of forward series resistance versus the DC
forward bias current. In order to obtain the best dynamic range, a single diode attenuator may be used
in series or shunt configuration or designed as a multiple diode circuit (T or p circuit), where the device
may be matched through the attenuation range.
Note: To reduce the distortion, it is necessary to verify and design with the following formula:

SILICON PIN DIODES

Non magnetic square ceramic package 500 volts PIN diodes
Applications
Maximum ratings
TEMEX non magnetic SQP diodes are

particularly suitable for Magnetic Resonance
Imaging applications. The maximum operating
breakdown voltage is 550 V. Several values of
total capacitance are available (beginning at
0.40 pF), together with a low forward series
resistance.
These devices are characterized for high power
handling, low loss and low distortion (long
carrier lifetime design). The electrical properties
are ideal for use in RF coils which must produce
a homogeneous electromagnetic field in the
MRI system for frequencies from a few MHz to
over 100 MHz.

SILICON PIN DIODES

High voltage PIN diodes
HIGH VOLTAGE PIN DIODES
Applications
Characteristics
These devices are most often used to control

Radio Frequency (RF) and microwave signals.
Typically, high-voltage PIN diodes are found in
high power switches and phase shifters.
The controlling element of a PIN diode is its

Intrinsic (l) layer. The diode itself is a sandwich,
i.e. a high resistivity l layer between highly
doped layers of P and N materials. With
negative bias on the l layer, the PIN diode
exhibits very high parallel resistance, e.g. acting
as a switch in the OFF position. A positive bias
causes the diode to conduct, with very low
series resistance. Certain applications impose
specific objectives on diode construction (e.g.
in the HF and VHF band, low signal distortion
can be achieved with high Minority Carrier
Lifetime l).
TEMEX high-voltage PIN diode products are

designed for very high reliability, high power
handling capabilities, high isolation, and low
signal distortion, especially in the HF and VHF
bands. High-power multithrow switch modules
are available for frequencies in the 1 MHz to
1 GHz range.
All high-voltage PIN diode products can be
configured on chips or in various packages: e.g.
series, shunt, flat mount, stud mount, surface
mount (SMD) and (on request) non-magnetic.

SILICON PIN DIODES

Microwave applications
MICROWAVE APPLICATIONS
Low and medium voltage PIN diode applications
The most common uses of these devices are: fast switching, attenuation and limiting. They operate at
frequencies from a few MHz to 100 GHz.
In switching applications, e.g. timing digital bit streams, these PIN diodes support signal power levels
below 30 W, up to 100 GHz. Thin I layers, from 1 to 50 m, and passivated mesa technology in chip
configurations, yield very low junction capacitance (Cj), i.e. below 0.025 pF.
As attenuators, e.g. in Automatic Gain Control (AGC) circuits, these PIN diodes are manufactured with
a proprietary technology. This technology optimizes the relationship between Cj and RSF (Forward
Series Resistance), offering a high Minority Carrier Lifetime l, which minimizes signal distortion.
In limiting applications, e.g. passive protection for receivers, these PIN diodes operate as power
dependent variable resistors.

Low barrier diodes are required for applications where the Local Oscillator (LO) drive level is between
- 10 dBm and + 10 dBm. Medium barrier diodes are required for applications where the LO drive level
is between - 5 dBm and + 15 dBm. The use of a passivated planar construction contributes to high
reliability.

TUNING VARACTOR
Description
This series of silicon tuning varactors have an epitaxial mesa design with a high temperature
passivation. This technology is used to produce abrupt tuning varactor in SOT23 package. This family
is designed for a low cost medium to high volume market that may be supplied in tape and reel
for automated pick and place assembly on surface mount circuit boards.
Applications
The DH71000 series abrupt tuning varactor are offered in a large selection of capacitance range.
They provide the highest Q factor (low reverse series resistance) available for a 30 volts silicon device.
Typical applications include low noise narrow and moderate frequency bandwidth applications
(VCO mainly) from HF to Microwave frequencies (up to 3 GHz). Other applications are voltage tuned
filters, phase shifters, delay line, etc.
NOTE: Variation of the junction capacitance versus reverse voltage follows this equation:
Cj (Vr) = Cj (0 V)
1 + Vr

Step recovery diodes and multiplier varactor applications
STEP RECOVERY DIODES AND MULTIPLIER

VARACTOR APPLICATIONS
A Step Recovery Diode (SRD) generates pulses that can be used to multiply frequencies, and to set up
reference points, e.g. for synchronizing test instruments.
This device operates by alternately producing and consuming a charge, based on the frequency of its
input signal. During forward bias, the SRD conducts and builds up its charge. During reverse bias,
the SRD maintains conduction by consuming its charge. When the charge has been fully consumed, the
SRD snaps off, i.e. very quickly reverts to zero conduction.
This device acts as a switch, controlling current flow by alternately storing and releasing its charge, forming
pulses at a repetition rate equal to the frequency of its input.
The output of a step recovery diode is most often used in two ways:
a pulse train can be applied to resonant circuits, which provides output power at a frequency
above that of the original input,
a pulse train can be used to develop a series of frequencies at multiples of the original input
frequencies.
Typical applications of step recovery diodes include oscillators, power transmitters and drivers,
for telecommunications, telemetry, radar and test equipment.
In choosing a SRD, the significant characteristics include:
Output Frequency (fo) ; Breakdown Voltage (VBR) ; Junction Capacitance (Cj) ; Minority Carrier Lifetime (l);
Snap-off Time (tso) ; Thermal Resistance (Rth) and Output Power (Po).
Multiplier varactors
A multiplier varactor is a physical stack of series-connected SRD units. This configuration is capable of
multiplying power.
Packages for multiplier varactors are designed to dissipate the power yield Power out
Power in
Most of these packages hold from 2 to 4 chips, this type of components are available on customer
request.
