GigaMite

Surface Mount Varactor Diodes

DESCRIPTION

This series of surface mount diodes are specifically design for high

volume surface mount applications. The GigaMite design is

optimized for improved electrical and thermal performance over

standard plastic package technology. Our patented dual orthogonal

lead frame provides both exceptionally low thermal impedance and

series inductance. Microsemi utilizes only the highest quality

dielectric materials resulting in low loss tangent and physical

stability even in harsh environments. The result is higher frequency

coverage and greater stability than comparable plastic packages.

This series of devices meets RoHS requirements per EU Directive

2002/95/EC.

APPLICATIONS

Microsemi Lowell offers a variety of Varactor diodes in the GigaMite

package style. Their low internal series inductance makes these

products well suited for VCOs and VVFs through 5 gHz. Choose

GMV1981 for low voltage battery applications. GMV5007 offers

state of the art frequency linearity. GMV2114, GMV2134, and

GMV2154 offer smooth wide ratio 20V tuning. GMV1542 offers high

Q performance for lowest phase noise and loss.
