Description
M/A-COM Technology Solutions MELF and HIPAX
PIN diode series are designed for usage in switch
and attenuator applications requiring high power
handling and low distortion. The MELF and HIPAX
PIN diodes incorporate a fully passivated PIN diode
chip resulting in an extremely low reverse bias
leakage current. The semiconductor technology
utilized in the MELF and HIPAX families draws on
M/A-COM Tech’s substantial experience in PIN
diode design and wafer fabrication. The result is a
device which has a thick
I-region
and long carrier
lifetime while maintaining low series resistance and
capacitance values. The chips of the MELF and
HIPAX PIN diodes are enclosed in a rugged
ceramic package and is full face bonded to metal
pins on both the anode and cathode. The result is a
low loss PIN diode with low thermal resistance due
to symmetrical thermal paths. The parts are offered
in either magnetic or non-magnetic, HIPAX (axial
leaded) or
Metal Electrode Leadless Faced (MELF)
surface mount packages for MRI applications. The
MELF is a rectangular SMQ, package which is
designed for high volume tape and reel assembly.
This easy to use package design makes automatic
pick and place, indexing and assembly, extremely
easy. The parallel flat surfaces are suitable for most
key jaw or vacuum pick-up techniques. All of the
solderable surfaces are tin plated and compatible
with industry standard reflow and vapor phase
soldering processes. See page 7 of Application
Note
M538
on the
M/A-COM Technology Solutions
website for a typical solder reflow profile.
Applications
HIPAX PIN diodes are designed for use in a wide
variety of switch and attenuator applications from HF
through UHF frequencies and at power levels above
1kW, CW. The internal chip as well as each diode
assembly has been comprehensively tested and
characterized to ensure predictable and repeatable
performance.
