Description
Microsemi’s GaAs hyperabrupt junction varactor
diodes are fabricated from epitaxial layers grown
at Microsemi by the Chemical Vapor Deposition
technique. The layers are processed at using
proprietary techniques resulting in varactors with
constant gamma, high Q factor and repeatable
tuning curves. These varactors are available in a
variety of microwave ceramic packages or
bondable chips for operation from UHF to
millimeter wave frequencies.
