Description
The MMP7072-127-1, MMP7076-127-1, MMP7080-127-1 MELF PIN Diode Family is manufactured using
Aeroflex/Metelics proprietary diode process which optimizes the anode and cathode bonding area of
the diode to the adjacent heat spreading metal posts within the ceramic package. This unique geometry
provides lower electrical and thermal resistance within the surface mount package to provide higher
average power performance to comparable surface mount diode packages.
With lower Thermal Resistance ( < 20 ºC/W ), RF C.W. incident power levels of + 50 dBm and RF peak
incident power levels of + 60 dBm are very achievable in higher power UHF cold switching applications.
The low series resistance (< 0.8
Ω),
coupled with the longer minority carrier lifetime, ( > 3 μS ), provides
better IIP3 distortion values > + 70 dBm, for SP2T Tx-Rx Switches.
These devices are hermetically sealed and are constructed with non-magnetic materials to meet
stringent requirements for MRI systems. The devices are fully RoHS compliant.
Applications
The MMP7072-127-1, MMP7076-127-1 , MMP7080-127-1 MELF PIN Diode Family is designed to be used
in Higher Power Switch and Attenuator applications, operating from 1 MHz to 1 GHz. These devices are
durable, reliable, and are capable of meeting all military, commercial, and industrial applications.
Environmental Capabilities
The MMP7072-127-1, MMP7076-127-1 , and MMP7080-127-1 MELF PIN Diodes are capable of meeting
the environmental requirements of MIL-STD-750.
ESD Rating
PIN Diodes are susceptible to ESD conditions as with all semiconductors. The ESD rating for these
devices is Class 1A, HBM.
