HMPP-386x Series
Data Sheet
MiniPak Surface Mount RF PIN Diodes
Description/Applications
These ultra-miniature products represent the blending of
Avago Technologies’ proven semiconductor and the latest
in leadless packaging technology.
The HMPP-386x series of general purpose PIN diodes are
designed for two classes of applications. The first is attenu-
ators where current consumption is the most important
design consideration. The second application for this
series of diodes is in switches where low capacitance with
no reverse bias is the driving issue for the designer.
The low dielectric relaxation frequency of the HMPP-386x
insures that low capacitance can be reached at zero volts
reverse bias at frequencies above 1 GHz, making this PIN
diode ideal for hand held applications.
Low junction capacitance of the PIN diode chip, combined
with ultra low package parasitics, mean that these products
may be used at frequencies which are higher than the upper
limit for conventional PIN diodes.
Note that Avago’s manufacturing techniques assure that
dice packaged in pairs are taken from adjacent sites on
the wafer, assuring the highest degree of match.
Minipak 1412 is a ceramic based package, while Minipak
QFN is a leadframe based package.
