Description
The HSMP-389x series is
optimized for switching
applications where low
resistance at low current and
low capacitance are required.
The HSMP-489x series
products feature ultra low
parasitic inductance. These
products are specifically
designed for use at
frequencies which are much
higher than the upper limit for
conventional PIN diodes.
