Description
M/A-COM’s MA4ST1200 series is a highly repeat-
able, UHCVD/ion-implanted, hyperabrupt silicon tun-
ing varactor in a cost effective surface mount pack-
age. This series of varactors is designed for high
capacitance ratio, and high Q for low battery voltage
operation. It is efficient for wide band tuning and low
phase noise application where the supply voltage is
limited to 5 volts or less. The Varactors are offered
as Singles in SC-79, and SOD-323 along with a
Common Cathode version offered in the SC-70, 3
Lead. These diodes are offered with standard Sn/Pb
plating , as well as with 100% matte Sn plating on
our RohS compliant equivalent devices.

Mounting Information
The illustration indicates the recommended
mounting pad configuration for the SC-79, SOT-323
and SOD-323 packages. Solder paste containing
flux should be screened onto the pads to a thickness
of 0.005- 0.007 inches. The plastic package is
placed in position, firmly adhering to the solder
paste.
Permanent attachment is performed by a reflow
soldering procedure during which the tab
temperature does not exceed +275
°C
and the body
temperature does not exceed +250
°C,
for standard
models and +260
°C
for the RoHS compliant
devices.
Please refer to Application Note M538 for surface
mounting instructions.
