Description
The SMP1322 series of plastic packaged, surface
mountable PIN diodes are designed for high volume switch
applications from 10 MHz to beyond 2 GHz. The ultra low
resistance of these diodes (1.5
Ω
maximum at 1 mA and
0.5
Ω
typical at 10 mA) make the SMP1322 series
particularly suited to low loss PIN diode switches in battery
operated circuits. Available in a selection of plastic
packages and in a variety of configurations including an
ultra low inductance (0.2 nH) SOT-143 (SMP1322-017),
the small footprint SC-79 and the miniature SC-70. In
addition, the SMP1322-016 consists of 2 diodes in a
SOT-143 package configured to enable insertion in a
quarter-wave T/R switch with no crossover connections.

SMP1322-007
In the -007 configuration of the SOT-23 package, the package
inductance is effectively reduced to 0.4 nH, in comparison to
the 1.5 nH value of the standard configuration. This lower
inductance will be particularly beneficial when the diodes are
used as shunt connected switches at frequencies higher than
500 MHz, where inductance is the primary limitation on
maximum switch isolation.
To achieve the effective 0.4 nH, the SOT-23 package
must be inserted in the microstrip circuit board with a
gap in the trace, as shown
in the figure. Because

Low Resistance Plastic Packaged PIN Diodes
SMP1322 Series
SMP1322-016 SOT-143 T/R Switch
The SMP1322-016 is a low cost PIN diode unconnected
pair specifically designed for low current drain antenna
T/R switches in hand held wireless suits. In the
specifically configured SOT-143 package, the PIN diodes
are oriented to enable connection as a
λ/4
switch with no
external crossover connections.
SMP1322-017 SOT-143 Low Inductance
PIN Diode
The SMP1322-017 utilizes the SMP1322 PIN diode chip
in a customized SOT-143 plastic package designed for
high isolation performance in a shunt connected switch.
Its effective inductance, based on the 3 GHz isolation, is
less than 0.2 nH. This diode is designed to work effectively
as a shunt element in SPDT switches, covering the
wireless frequencies from 900 MHz to beyond 2 GHz.
Excellent performance is achievable when used in a
quarter-wave T/R switch with the SMP1322-001 (SOT-23)
or SMP1322-011 (SOD-323) PIN diode as the series
connected diode.
