HPND-4028

HPND-4028, HPND-4038 Beam Lead PIN Diodes for Phased Arrays and Switches Data Sheet Description The HPND-4028 and 4038 beam lead PIN diodes are ­designed for low capacitance, low resistance, and fast switch­ing at microwave frequencies. These characteristics are achieved at low bias levels for minimal power consumption. Advanced processing techniques ensure uniform and consistent electrical performance, allowing guaranteed capacitance windows. This translates to improved performance in phased array ­applications. Rugged construction and strong beams ensure high assembly yields while nitride passivation and polyimide coating ensure reliability. Features Low Capacitance 0.025 pF Maximum at 1 MHz Guaranteed Min./Max. Fast Switching 2.0 nsec Low Resistance at Low Bias 1.5 Ω at IF = 10 mA (Typical) Rugged Construction Typical 10 Gram Lead Pull Silicon Nitride Passivation Applications These beam lead PIN diodes are designed for use in stripline, coplanar waveguide, or micro­strip circuits. Applications include phase shifting and switching. The guaranteed capacitance windows ensure uniform per­ formance in phased array radar. The low capaci­tance makes them ideal for circuits requiring high isolation in the series configura­tion. These devices have been fully charac­terized and S-parameters have been provided.
